Wolverhampton Wanderers considering move for Coventry striker Viktor Gyokeres
Wolverhampton Wanderers are said to be considering a potential transfer move for the highly-rated Coventry City forward, Viktor Gyokeres. Reports suggest that the Premier League outfit is closely monitoring the 24-year-old and could make an offer for him during the upcoming summer transfer window.
Gyokeres has been in impressive form for Coventry this season, scoring a total of 22 goals in 46 appearances across all competitions, with 21 of them coming in the Championship. His performances have caught the attention of Wolves manager Julen Lopetegui and the club’s scouting team, who have been impressed by his pace, skill, and finishing ability.
However, Wolves may face competition from other clubs that are also keen on acquiring Gyokeres. It is believed that a fee in the region of £25 million would be necessary to secure the Swedish international’s services, which would make him one of the most expensive signings in Wolves’ history.
Coventry, on the other hand, is reportedly hesitant to let Gyokeres go, given his contributions to the team’s performances this season. The Sky Blues are looking to build on their promising campaign next season and would likely suffer a significant blow should they lose their key player to Wolves or another top-flight club.

As for Wolves, they are currently battling to avoid relegation from the Premier League and are looking to strengthen their squad ahead of next season. With Raul Jimenez missing most of the campaign due to injury, the team has struggled to score goals. Gyokeres could provide the much-needed boost to their attack and complement the likes of Adama Traore and Pedro Neto.
The likelihood of Wolves securing Gyokeres’ signature is yet to be seen, but his potential and impressive form this season make him an attractive prospect for any club. Coventry will undoubtedly be hoping to keep hold of their star forward, but if a significant offer comes in, it may be hard to resist.
