ITALIAN side Atalanta are keen to buy Coventry goal machine Viktor Gyokeres — but the Sky Blues are asking for around £20million.
Sporting Lisbon have already tried and failed for Swede Gyokeres, 25, who has hit 40 goals in two years.
He has also been linked with a move to Premier League side Brentford.
Last season, Gyokeres was in sensational form as he bagged 21 times in the second tier.
He inspired Coventry to fifth place in the Championship, before they came up short in the play-off final against Luton.
The failure to secure promotion to the top flight could prove detrimental to Mark Robins' side trying to keep hold of the Scandinavian striker.

As well as Brentford, Wolves are also understood to be interested in the ex-Brighton man.
And the Seagulls would welcome the sale of Gyokeres as they inserted a sell-on clause into his transfer when he joined Coventry for £1m in 2021.
Speaking earlier this month about his future, the forward told fotballskanalen.se: "There are a number of clubs that are interested and Coventry surely want what they want.
"Then you have to take it accordingly and see when the club feels satisfied.

"But I hope that the club can also think about what I want and what I feel for, and not just about who pays the most."
Gyokeres believes his £20m price tag is too high given he has just 12 months of his deal remaining.
He added: "I only have one year left on the contract, so considering that, it’s quite a lot."
