Media watchLiverpool 'join race' to sign £86m striker wanted by Arsenal and Chelsea
Liverpool have reportedly joined the race to sign Sporting Lisbon striker Victor Gyokeres. The Reds are yet to make their first signing of the summer but are continuing to be linked with several potential targets.
Gyokeres has been heavily linked with a move away from Sporting this summer, with the rumours first surfacing about an exit back in January. Liverpool were initially credited with an interest in the New Year before the rumours quietened down, but now speculation has re-emerged.
