When I read this news I was wondering what Sporting's next season will be like without Gyokeres. It seems to me that this Almeria striker, Luis Suárez, is not at the same level of performance that Gyokeres has had since he arrived at Sporting. It is true that he was the top scorer in La Liga 2, but asking for 25 million euros for him knowing that he is 27 years old is an exaggeration.
He is valued at 8 million and the Spanish club wants to ask for 25 million, even knowing that the guy is 27 years old, has played 41 games and scored 27 goals. In my opinion, these numbers are not attractive, because we are talking about the second division and being the top scorer in a league with these data is not motivating.

Gyökeres is certain about not playing for Sporting anymore. He is angry with the team for asking too much money. Sporting chairman should set his demands accordingly otherwise he will have to leave him out of squad.
As far as I know Arsenal offered an amount around €55-60m the last time. I guess they would have an agreement soon. They really need a scorer like him.
When it comes to Luis Suárez he performed impressively only in 2nd leagues. Not good in the La Liga. But we will see what will happen in the Liga Portugal.

I also agree with both of you, 25 million is a very high price to pay for a player like Luis Suárez at the age of 27, for a club like Sporting
Look at the statistics
The 24/25 season was the only one in which the player scored a lot of goals, 27 goals in 41 games
Looking at the previous years, it wasn't very good
In my opinion Sporting would have to pay less for Almeria as it's a risky bet
And with Gyökeres' money at least in my opinion Sporting would need to sign about 3 younger, not too expensive players and keep the rest
