Toon knew that Chelsea were also keen, but now the Blues could be about to try and launch their own move. Like Newcastle, Blues chiefs are huge admirers of his ability and versatility to play anywhere across the front line. Unlike their Premier League rivals, they are yet to open negotiations with the Seagulls, but they are considering an attempt to land him and bolster Enzo Marseca's squad.

We know that Manchester United are interested in signing him as well - obviously there is that pre-existing relationship with Ruben Amorim. But Arsenal can offer Champions League football, maybe can offer a tilt at the title next season. Arsenal are juggling both him and Benjamin Sesko, they've opened talks with Leipzig as well. But at the moment, I would say Gyokeres looks the more likely. Alex Crook TalkSPORT Copy link Copied By Nico Williams blow Arsenal have been dealt a massive blow in their bid for Athletic Bilbao star Nico Williams.
