It was previously believed that the Red Devils would be leading the race for Gyokeres after former Sporting CP manager Ruben Amorim took charge at Old Trafford. However, it now appears that the 26-year-old has no desire to move to England and is waiting for the right offer for his next adventure.
This will be music to Catalans' ears as they lay down succession plans for Robert Lewandowski. The Polish striker has plundered in 22 goals from 19 games this season but will turn 37 next year. The LaLiga gaints want Gyokeres to take his place.
The Swede has been a hit since arriving at Sporting CP in the summer of 2023. He has scored 24 goals and set up four more from 20 games this season.
Gyokeres was also on fire in his debut campaign, finishing with 43 goals and 15 assists from 50 games across competitions. While he could be a hit at Barcelona, the player is under contract with Sporting CP until 2028 and is likely to cost a fair fee.
Arsenal eyeing Raphinha
Arsenal are planning to take Raphinha to the Emirates in 2025, according to Fichajes.net. The Gunners are looking to bolster their attack amid Gabriel Martinelli's struggles.
The north London side were interested in Raphinha since his Leeds United days but lost out to Barcelona in the race for his signature in 2022. The Brazilian has rediscovered himself this season under Hansi Flick, registering 13 goals and 10 assists from 19 games.
Raphinha is one of the Catalans' most important players at the moment and the club are unlikely to consider his exit. However, Arsenal are hoping to lure the LaLiga giants with a €90m offer for the 27-year-old. With Barcelona still under financial difficulties, such a proposal could turn their heads.
Catalans working to tie key duo down to new deal
Barcelona are working on new deals for Pedri and Gavi, according to acclaimed journalist Fabrizio Romano. Both young Spaniards are key figures at Camp Nou at the moment but their contracts expire in 2026.
Pedri has been in the thick of things under Hansi Flick this season, registering three goals and two assists from 19 games. Gavi, meanwhile, recently returned from an ACL injury he picked up last year and is already seen as a future captain.
The Catalans are keen to end any speculation regarding their futures. Negotiations are ongoing with both players' camps and they are expected to extend their stay soon.
