Erling Haaland could hold the key to United securing Amorim’s dream signing as unlikely motivation for switch is revealed

Manchester United target Viktor Gyokeres is likely to move to the Red Devils so he can live near Erling Haaland, it has been claimed.

That’s the view of musician Tom Grennan, who says he knows the Swedish striker well from his time playing for Coventry City, the club he supports.

Gyokeres is right at the top of United manager Ruben Amorim’s wishlist for the summer transfer window after bagging over 50 goals last season and 43 the year before under his tutelage for Sporting CP.

For comparison United’s current squad managed only 44 league goals between them last season, so it’s little wonder the Portuguese boss is looking at a reunion with his prize striker from his time in Lisbon.

The 27-year-old is said to be furious that Sporting CP reneged on the gentleman’s agreement to let him leave the club for less than the €80m they are now demanding, and has even told them he will never play for them again as a result.

With his future seemingly away from Portugal, United are a distinct possibility for his next destination, especially with Arsenal’s priority striker signing now looking like RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko.

And according to Grennan, Gyokeres will be delighted with a move to Manchester as he can live next door to his best friend, Manchester City striker Haaland.

The musician told the BBC podcast You About?, via the Daily Mirror: “I know him well. I actually messaged him and he said that there’s different conversations going on.

“Do you know who his best friend is? Haaland. That is why I think he’ll go to Manchester United because he’ll be next door to Haaland.”

Should he end up becoming a Red Devil, the Old Trafford faithful will be hoping he emulates the towering Norwegian’s performances in England where he has 121 goals in 142 matches for City.

Since missing out on Haaland things haven’t quite worked out for United’s reinforcements at centre-forward, with Rasmus Hojlund the highest-profile arrival in that position.

After a dismal campaign saw him on the scoresheet in the Premier League just four times, he may be set for a summer move to Inter Milan as Amorim looks for reliable goals up front.
