Overview
- Court paperwork and agent lawyer Joakim Lundqvist confirm Gyökeres has agreed to give evidence and may be called to the stand.
- Agent Hasan Cetinkaya has filed a gross defamation suit against Fotboll Sthlm and Expressen over articles alleging ties to criminal gangs, which he denies.
- The dispute was first taken to Sweden’s media ombudsman before being escalated to the Stockholm District Court.
- Stockholm police are investigating August gunfire at the Huddinge home of a relative of one of Gyökeres’ representatives, with no injuries reported and warnings issued about violence risks around large transfers.
- Reports indicate the case is scheduled for 2026, which could affect the striker’s availability, after his July move to Arsenal for about £63.7m and a start of two league goals in three matches.
