Hopefully Arsenal's latest bid for Rice should see them flush and looking to start moving in the market.

Really surprising. The bottom half of that league is like non-league here. The players might be a bit better but the stadiums and attendances are so poor.

Surely if a PL side were interested, he wouldn’t go.

Why not? He probably wants to be guaranteed first team football and could see it as a stepping stone to playing in Spain or Italy .

You only have to look at the players Sporting have developed over the years to see why it’s an exciting prospect for any young player

He’s 25, not 21 - if he does minimum two years years there then he’s 27. Probably rules out most clubs paying a significant fee, and he’ll still have (as reported) 3 years left on his contract.
His stock is high now, why not cash his chips for a PL move now.
Unless there genuinely isn’t interest

Believe it or not but the world doesn’t revolve around the PL. At 27 he’ll still be in his prime too.

It’s a good stepping stone to elite level football, Sporting are in the Europa League and if he scores a few in that then who’s to say a ‘bigger’ club wouldn’t be interested

People are forgetting as well, he’s not English - So staying in England might not be the be all and end all - In terms of lifestyle I’m choosing go live in Portugal over the UK any day of the week

I would be very happy with this Burnley deal if it was true 🤔

I reckon the only thing stopping Gyökeres going to Burnley would be Gyökeres

I think that he’d personally see himself above signing for a newly promoted side and besides that he does seem to have his heart set on Sporting

Those two players plus £10m would be a great deal - how much are you expecting us to get £25m at least?

No but I wouldn’t pay £6m for McNallly and £4m for Twine either. McNally moved for less than £2m this time last year and couldn’t get in the Burnley side. Twine was mainly a fringe player too.

it’s only 6 months ago fans on this site were saying we should accept £4m-£5m for Hamer !

i think £19m or above is fair value for Vik. It’s potentially a game changer for our club, materially over paying then for the incoming players just wastes that opportunity.

Seems a risky approach though - he’d have to do well in the Europa league, because the Portuguese league is pretty poor. 4 games a season against decent opposition.

I agree with the lifestyle point, Lisbon is a beautiful city and he’d have a great time there. However football is a short career and he could do that afterwards.

Don’t get me wrong, they’re a prestigious club, but are they any better than say Rangers?

They’re a PL side and McNally was in a team that got to the play-off final last season - he’s worth quite a bit more than 2m now - I’d imagine they’d accept 4-6m for him.
