Coventry City have reportedly opened the door for a potential sale of striker Victor Gyokeres, amid interest from Leeds United and Everton.

Gyokeres has caught the attention of several Premier League clubs after scoring 18 goals in 38 league games this season.

The 24-year-old has also enjoyed a successful international period, scoring Sweden's third and providing an assist for the opener in Monday's 5-0 victory over Azerbaijan in Euro 2024 qualifying.

The forward will now turn his attention to Coventry's playoff push, which could prove pivotal if the Sky Blues are to retain the services of one of their prized assets.

According to Football Insider, Coventry are resigned to losing Gyokeres if they fail to win promotion to the Premier League.

The Sky Blues, who are sitting in eighth place in the Championship table, are just three points adrift of the playoffs ahead of the final eight games of the season.

Gyokeres is currently under contract until June 2024, but he could be willing to agree a new deal if Coventry can return to the top flight for the first time since 2001.

However, Coventry will entertain offers if they fail to secure promotion rather than risk losing Gyokeres on a free transfer in 2024.

Coventry's stance will come as a boost to Leeds and Everton, who are among a number of clubs that are considering a summer move for the Sweden international.

Despite signing Georginio Rutter from Hoffenheim in January, Leeds are still looking to bolster their forward line ahead of the 2023-24 campaign.

Having scored 22 goals in 28 games, Everton are the joint-lowest scorers in the Premier League, highlighting their need for reinforcements in the final third.

The two sides are currently involved in a relegation battle, and they will need to avoid the drop if they are to launch a bid for Gyokeres.

Coventry have reportedly indicated that they will be looking to receive a fee in the region of £20m for their top scorer.

Leeds and Everton could face further competition though, as the likes of Aston Villa, Brentford, Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton Wanderers have all been linked.

A recent report also claimed that Leicester City are also in the race to sign Gyokores at the end of the season.
