Arsenal receive transfer boost for free-scoring striker

Napoli have ruled out a bid for Viktor Gyokeres, according to reports.

The Sporting CP striker is reportedly a target for Arsenal and has an £86m release clause in his contract.

Victor Osimhen’s likely departure from Napoli has led to reports of their interest in the Swede but sporting director Giovanni Manna described a deal for Gyokeres as “impossible”, as quoted by TMW.

Napoli are thought to prefer Romelu Lukaku of Chelsea or Girona’s Artem Dovbyk once Osimhen is sold, with PSG and Al Ahli named as his most likely destinations.
