The proposed operation would see the Argentine attacker head to the Emirates Stadium in exchange for a substantial cash sum, with Swedish marksman Gyokeres going in the opposite direction to the Metropolitano. This high-profile arrangement would demand a financial settlement alongside the player exchange, with cash adjustments expected to sit around €60m.
Atletico believe securing the Swede provides an ideal solution, allowing the sporting department to bring in a “pure, out-and-out centre-forward”.
