Viktor Gyokeres has been linked with Manchester United since Ruben Amorim moved from Sporting Lisbon to take the reigns at Old Trafford.

As such, the 26-year-old know Amorim well and fits into his system, having risen to success under the Portuguese manager.

With 40 goals and 10 assists in 41 games, Gyokeres has a goal contribution rating of 1.2 per game, the highest of the four strikers on the list.

Also in his favour is his prior experience of British football having played for Coventry, Brighton and Swansea before moving to Sporting, meaning that Premier League football wont be a shock to Gyokeres.

Whilst the Portuguese side might be hoping to retain their star striker ahead of their Champions League campaign next season, the striker has expressed his desire to leave in the summer.

The 26-year-old has also previously given Manchester United a huge boost, reportedly setting his heart on a reunion with Amorim at Old Trafford.

However, the Swedish striker has a £63 million release clause much like Osimhen, making them the most expensive of the strikers on the shortlist.
