REPORT:West Ham has successfully signed Manchester City, Liverpool And Real Madrid target £120m David Moyes smile’s and said,have gotten what I wanted
Foot Mercato’s Santi Aouna claims Sporting CP are trying to wrap up a deal for Viktor Gyokeres as soon as possible, after claims David Moyes wants him at West Ham United.
The journalist took to Twitter on Sunday afternoon and claimed that Sporting are prioritising the signing of the Coventry City striker.
West Ham look set for a decisive summer ahead after picking up the Europa Conference League title this week.
There was previously uncertainty surrounding the future of David Moyes given the Hammers’ underwhelming displays in the Premier League this season. But after delivering the club’s first major trophy in over 40 years, West Ham owner David Sullivan has confirmed that the Scotsman will stay on as manager if he wishes to.
One player that Moyes was seemingly eyeing a summer swoop for was Viktor Gyokeres
Indeed, The Sun reported back in March that the West Ham boss had even gone on a ‘solo mission’ to watch the striker.
Now, it seems that Sporting have stolen a march on the competition and want to wrap up a deal for the 24-year-old.
Sporting move for Gyokeres
Aouna claims Sporting are attempting to close a deal for Gyokeres as soon as possible.
The Coventry striker is attracting interest elsewhere, but the Portuguese outfit have made him their priority.
Gyokeres has starred for Coventry this season having had a hand in 31 goals in the Championship. The Swedish striker netted a total of 22 goals in all competitions.
Previously valued at £25 million by the Sky Blues, Gyokeres has been lauded for his directness and pace, which allows him to operate out wide or as a lone striker.
But it is his keen eye for goal that has attracted interest from West Ham as they have struggled in that area this season.
He seems like the ideal long-term replacement for Michail Antonio given his impressive physical presence while leading the line for Coventry.
It would be a blow for West Ham to miss out on Gyokeres as they’ve been preparing a move for quite some time now.
Yet, it seems there is still time for the Hammers to make their move for the striker.

Andy Dunn wants ‘severe’ UEFA punishment for West Ham United after what Fiorentina chief said
Andy Dunn says he “understands” Fiorentina president Rocco Commisso’s anger and called for action following the Conference League Final between West Ham and the Italian club.
On Wednesday 7 June, West Ham ended a 43-year major trophy drought with a 2-1 win over Fiorentina in Prague which saw them lift the UEFA Conference League.
While the night was a historic and special occasion for the club, some fans’ inexcusable actions let the club down during the first half.
During the 34th minute, objects were hurled towards Fiorentina man Cristiano Biraghi as he got set to take a corner kick which left the Italian’s head covered in blood. The Serie A side’s president has been left furious and Dunn has come to his defence.
Writing on page 71 of the Sunday Mirror (11 June) Dunn said “If a player from a Premier League club was left with blood pouring from his head after being hit by a missile thrown by Italian fans, we would be up in arms.”
So the anger of Fiorentina’s president Rocco Commissio after Cristiano Biraghi was wounded by an object hurled by a West Ham was completely understandable. UEFA’s punishment of the English club should be
However, Dunn did suggest some of the anger was misplaced when he said, “Commisso’s suggestion that the Hammers were also ‘animals’ on the field was preposterous.”
Fair anger
Dunn is spot-on with everything that he has commented on in regard to the situation. Firstly, when it comes to a European final, the game is likely to be competitive with a slight edge and that is something Commisso can have few complaints about.
However, most of his anger is likely driven by the first-half incident which is completely fair. The ‘fans’ who threw objects toward the pitch should not be allowed to enter a stadium for a very long time if caught.
On this occasion, Biraghi got away with just a bloody head however on any other occasion the outcome could have been much worse. If struck in the eye the player may have been blinded or had his vision impaired.
There needs to be a hard crackdown when incidents like this occur to send a message to other fans that these kinds of actions are not acceptable and will not be tolerated, in order to ensure the safety of players on the pitch.
