£65m release clause is not bad for Viktor Gyökeres regardless that he is a major figure in Sporting Lisbon though if he was to play for one of the big teams in La Liga, Bundesliga and the Premier League, his price tag would have been higher but however, it's not really about how expensive a player is that matters, if a club signs him can he maintain same performance as he did for Sporting Lisbon? that is the question and what should be after because if he perform the way he did for Sporting Lisbon, his market value will increase in his new club when he wants to sign for another club. I like when a player who is performing awesomely well, moves out to other clubs to test his skills and improve more rather than being stuck in a particular club for so long.
65 million still too expensive for a striker who only played in Lisbon. He's scored a lot, but it was in the portuguese competition. We have seen so many strikers were beast at the mid tier league, but did nothing after they stepped up into the top tier league.
Definitely buying him for 65 million is such a gamble. He can be good or bad. If he can suit his new club well, that's good. However, if he does opposite thing, 65 million is totally wasted.
His buyer must be thinking for twice before try to bet on him.
