Sporting President Varandas on Viktor Gyökeres: “I’m Not Going to Say What the Price Is, the Player Knows What It Is”

Sporting CP president Frederico Varandas has firmly dismissed widespread speculation regarding Viktor Gyökeres’s potential departure this summer.
 “I’m not going to say what the price is—the player knows what it is,” Varandas emphasized, confirming that the valuation has been communicated directly to Gyökeres .
He further clarified the club’s stance on any rumored €60 million plus €10 million package:
 “I can tell you that Viktor will not leave for €60 m plus €10 m—he won’t, he just won’t,” Varandas stated unequivocally .

Varandas acknowledged interest from top Premier League clubs, notably Arsenal, Manchester United, and Juventus, but insisted Sporting doesn’t feel pressured to sell. While understanding Gyökeres’s desire to move on, the president reiterated that any transfer would require a fee that reflects the striker’s market value.

Comparisons were drawn with recent high-profile moves: Martin Zubimendi transferred to Arsenal for €65 million, while strikers such as Matheus Cunha and Bryan Beuemo fetched around €70 million in the Premier League—transfers that reinforce Sporting’s valuation of Gyökeres

Varandas described the ongoing transfer saga as calm and measured. "Sporting do not need to sell Gyökeres," he remarked, adding that the club remains open to reasonable offers aligned with the striker’s recent success—a two-time Primeira Liga Golden Boot winner with 39 league goals in 33 games last season .

 Varandas outlined two clear scenarios: if a club meets Sporting’s asking price, Gyökeres will depart; if not, the 27‑year‑old striker will stay under contract, with the club prepared to build around him .
