Europe’s most famous striker could be on the verge of joining Real Madrid in a swap deal. Real Madrid could be close to signing Viktor Gyökeres thanks to a deal that Florentino Pérez may be willing to make.
Gyökeres, the Swedish striker, has become one of the most prominent names in Europe due to his exceptional season, with impressive numbers that have garnered widespread attention.
Although his hat-trick against Manchester City was the crowning achievement of his brilliant season, his remarkable performances have been attracting attention for a long time.
So far this season, Gyökeres has scored 24 goals in 19 games, significantly increasing his market value. This impressive form has made Sporting Lisbon, his current team, closely monitor the situation.
The great interest from several clubs in signing the Swedish striker is growing, with Real Madrid being among those closely following his performances.
According to information from the Spanish newspaper “Defensa Central, Real Madrid knows that Sporting Lisbon will demand a significant sum for Gyökeres, and some clubs are willing to pay it. Therefore, some sources have reported that Florentino Pérez is considering a tempting exchange deal.
Reports indicate that Pérez may be willing to include Endrick in the deal as part of the process, but this would not be a permanent transfer; rather, it would be a loan deal.
This plan may come as a surprise to some, as Real Madrid seems unwilling to part with the young Brazilian, just as they did with Arda Güler, especially if this deal would allow them to sign another striker.
