Gyokeres' stats
This is exactly why Viktor Gyokeres is one of the most in-demand strikers right now.
Take your Vik
Viktor Gyokeres brushed away a cheeky question about a potential move to Arsenal this summer amid swirling rumours over his future.
The Sporting Lisbon striker has been linked with a switch to the Gunners as well as a host of other top clubs given his flying form in Portugal.
Gyokeres, 26, is one of the most in-demand strikers in the world after already scoring 47 goals in 46 appearances across all competitions this season.
And the Swedish international is thought to be one of Arsenal's top targets on their list of potential strikers this summer.
But when probed by Portuguese media on a switch to the Emirates, Gyokeres remained tight-lipped on his future.
Asked if he liked London, he simply replied: "I like Lisbon".

Arsenal go from the Bernabeu to Portman Road this afternoon as they face a relegation-fighting Ipswich in a testing Premier League encounter.
The Gunners go into this on cloud 9 after making it to their first Champions League semi-final since 2009 by beating holders Real Madrid on Wednesday.
Just after the hour mark, Saka opened the scoring on the night with a superb dinked finish, but the Gunners' four-goal aggregate lead didn't last long.
A William Saliba howler gave Vinicius Jr an open goal - and the Brazilian made no mistake.
In stoppage time, Gabriel Martinelli put the gloss on his side's spectacular display with a stunning finish to give the North London giants a 2-1 win (agg 5-1) at the Bernabeu.
Now Mikel Arteta’s men will be hoping to delay Liverpool’s imminent title with a win against The Tractor Boys.
But if they lose and the Reds beat Leicester tomorrow, then its mathematically impossible for the Gunners so a win is a must.
However, that will be tougher than it says on paper because this is an Ipswich side who are fighting for their lives at the bottom of the table.
