Gyokeres has included Arsenal on a seven-team shortlist of those clubs he will consider leaving Sporting for over the close-season.

And it's also emerged that new Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta is a big fan of Gyokeres and will push to sign the centre-forward.

The Sun says Berta's interest will be welcomed by Gyokeres, who is now leaning towards a move to the Gunners.

While his buyout clause is set at €90m, the player and his club have a gentleman's agreement that Gyokeres can leave Sporting this summer for €60m.
