Real Madrid were offered the chance to sign Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres, but they are focusing on other targets as new boss Xabi Alonso begins to shape his squad

Viktor Gyokeres has been offered to Real Madrid this summer, with the Swedish striker keen to leave Sporting Lisbon, but the La Liga side have turned him down

The news will delight former Arsenal ace Ray Parlour, who called on Arteta to add a winger to his squad this summer. Speaking shortly after the transfer window ended, he explained: "A winger would still be great to cover Saka and Martinelli. [A deal for Martin] Zubimendi appears to be getting closer.”
