"Victor Gyokeresas, who is shining at the "Sporting" club, is unlikely to choose the "Manchester United" team.

According to "The Athletic" journalist Laurie Whitwell, the 26-year-old Swede will prioritize teams that play in the Champions League next summer. The "Red Devils" could only return to this tournament if they triumph in the Europa League.

It is also hard to believe that "Manchester United" with new shareholders INEOS would spend big money on a player who will turn 27 next summer, according to L. Whitwell.

V. Gyokeresas has not received much trust from the coach lately, but he has proven his worth earlier. This season he has scored 44 goals, including appearances with the Swedish national team.
