Victor Gyokeres is quickly becoming one of the most in-form strikers in Europe, with his recent performances for both Sporting and the Swedish national team earning him widespread praise. The 26-year-old has been nothing short of sensational this season, continuing his red-hot form in front of goal. Gyokeres has scored 10 goals and provided 5 assists in his last seven appearances, a remarkable streak that highlights his growing influence and undeniable talent.

Since the start of the 2024/25 season, Gyokeres has been directly involved in a goal in every competitive match he’s played for both club and country, either scoring or assisting. His performances during the international break were particularly eye-catching, netting twice and setting up another in Sweden’s 3-1 victory against Azerbaijan, followed by a brace in a 3-0 rout of Estonia.

Last season was a breakout year for Gyokeres, with an astonishing 40 goals and 15 assists in 48 matches for Sporting. He was heavily linked with some of Europe’s biggest clubs during the summer transfer window, but a move never materialized. However, if he continues to perform at this level, it seems only a matter of time before one of those clubs makes a big-money move for the Swedish sensation.
