The Club World Cup has seen many memorable performances, but which South American players have used this tournament to make a move to Europe?

Viktor Gyökeres was in England's second tier a few years ago but he was Europe's top goal scorer last season and is now a major addition for Arsenal.

The wait for Arsenal to sign Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyökeres appears to finally be close to a positive conclusion. Here's why it has taken so long.

Manchester United have made a last-ditch attempt to steal Viktor Gyökeres from under the noses of Arsenal. Transfer Talk has the latest news, gossip and rumors.
