CNN Portugal: Swedish striker Viktor Gyökeres (Coventry) is one step closer to joining Sporting CP for 20 million + 35 percent of any future sale.

SSN saying Arsenal have agreed a deal with WH for Rice at £105m. Let's see if this stirs the Gyokeres pot even more?

I doubt West Ham are that hard up they have to sell someone to bid £18m

Yeah but this has always happened with the Prem. They wait for big sales to then trigger the next lot. Unless you’re Man City of course…

If the fee is “undisclosed”, maybe the destination club will be “undisclosed” also

If there is some truth in the Sporting story, and the club are thinking of selling at what would likely be the lower end - 17 mil, is this more of a gamble on future sale? The sell on percentage thrown about is 35%, I guess one really good season in Europe and he could go somewhere for 60 mil, that's another 20 mil on top for us.

The sheer persistence of the stories emerging from Portugal suggests there is some truth there. And we know that CCFC acknowledged the interest from Lisbon. A 35% sell-on clause sounds high but Brighton claim to have a 20% cut on the Gyokeres deal (and in the past WBA once insisted on a 50% sell-on clause).
Lets hope that the 35% is from the total future sale and not from the profit Lisbon make, if this is indeed true

I’m sure it’s been on here the Brighton cut is 15% of any profit.

Thanks. I have seen 20% quoted but never with any certainty behind it.

Wouldn't want Ings. He'll feel he's good enough for a Premier League club (Bournemouth, Palace etc),. + of course the wages. Just give us £24 million, and maybe their most talented young centre half on a 12 month loan.

I doubt he would even give give the idea a second thought. if he wanted to stay in the prem there would be plenty of takers if not then he could go earn millions in the Saudi League.

Really surprising. The bottom half of that league is like non-league here. The players might be a bit better but the stadiums and attendances are so poor.

Surely if a PL side were interested, he wouldn’t go.

Big fish in a small pond. Scores a heap of goals whilst enjoying the better weather and the delights of Lisbon and beyond. Stock rises and he can then make a move elsewhere, if he wants to. I know where I'd go and it wouldn't be the North-West of England.

Yeah if that’s happens great. However fairly major risk if it doesn’t work out as you’ve said.

Earning good money, but not mega money.

Sporting players have got a record of leaving for the sort of PL sides Gyokeres is already linked with - so I’d say it’s not as great a move as it seems

Equally, if he didn't cut the mustard at the likes of Everton or Burnley, it would be difficult to see his career taking a positive step thereafter.

But likely earning a lot more, and a higher place to drop from.

Haha. On what evidence? I saw him dominated by 5 or 6 different championship defenders last season, you think he'll find it easier in the toughest league in the world?

Plus he needs, as best you can, to be a guaranteed starter. He wouldn't be that in Premier League.

Portugal is a good option for him to continue his development with European football and keeping him in international contention. At 25 this is an important move, he can't afford to go back to being a bench warmer.

Always funny when people start to get bitter over a player leaving us and try to make out they’re not as good as they actually are.

Somehow while simultaneously moaning we aren’t getting enough money for the player who apparently wasn’t that good anyway.
