Man Utd must win Europa League to have any chance of signing Viktor Gyokeres
Manchester United's hopes of securing Viktor Gyokeres this summer are closely tied to their performance in the Europa League.
The Swedish striker has made it clear that he prefers to join a club competing in the Champions League next season.
Currently, Man United are not guaranteed a top-four finish in the Premier League. This makes their success in the Europa League crucial for any potential move.
The Sporting striker has been in exceptional form this season, scoring 52 goals across all competitions, including 38 in the Primeira Liga.
Ruben Amorim, who previously coached Gyokeres at Sporting, is expected to play a pivotal role in any negotiations.
However, Gyokeres' preference for Champions League football means the Red Devils must secure qualification through the Europa League to enhance their chances of landing the striker.
