No canon evidence
- While some fans may enjoy shipping characters in same-sex relationships, there is no canon evidence to suggest that either Naruto or Sasuke are attracted to people of the same sex.

It definitely feels like it's on purpose to me or he has some deep latent homosexual feelings he's releasing through their relationship. He says he sucks at romance, and if we look at canon relationships he sort does, but Naruto and Sasuke's is pretty romantic.
Sasuke is aware of his homosexuality but doesn't mind it and Naruto is a gay in denial, masking his obsession as "friendship" or "loyalty". No grown ass man would chase and pursue another grown ass man just because they are friends. Sasuke chose to be a fugitive and join a terrorist organization.

—Naruto to Sarada about Sasuke
SasuNaru is the slash ship between Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha from the Naruto fandom.
Naruto
Naruto and Sasuke have known each other since they were young children as both they were born in the same year and attended the ninja academy together. Sasuke was popular and at the top of his class which made Naruto jealous. He was also popular with the girls, including Sakura Haruno, whom Naruto ended up having a crush on. Naruto and Sasuke had a huge rivalry during their years in the academy. At one point, when Naruto was angrily staring into Sasuke's face, another student accidentally pushed him over and the two kissed by accident. After graduating from the academy, Naruto and Sasuke were placed on the same team under the leadership of Kakashi Hatake along with Sakura. This somewhat inflamed the love triangle that already existed. In the bell test, Sasuke is the first to set his selfish side away and offer food to Naruto. In the beginning of Volume 3, when Naruto is falling from the tree, Sasuke instantly jumps into action and, with no hesitation, saves Naruto from getting badly hurt. In chapter 22, they return from training together with their arms around each other. They motivated and supported each other during training. During the battle against Haku, Sasuke was heavily injured by her trying to save Naruto. Naruto ran, grabbed him and asked him why did he protected him, and he answered that "his body moved on his own". Sasuke had many flashbacks about all the times he and Naruto had spent, and after falling unconcious, Sasuke told Naruto that he can't let his dream of becoming Hokage die. Naruto then hugged him, got enraged and activated his kyubi mode, starting to fight Haku. After Naruto calmed down, he saw Sasuke was healed again. Sasuke raised his hand to him in signal he's ok, Naruto smiled and tears started falling from his eyes. After some time, Sasuke realized Naruto was enormously stronger than him, so he decided to leave the village in order to go train under Orochimaru. Naruto attempted to stop him and the two ended up having a fight. Sasuke admitted that Naruto was his best friend and eventually won the battle. Naruto swore that he would still bring back Sasuke one day.
Naruto Shippuden
Over two and half years later, Naruto and Sasuke were reunited again. Sasuke was much more merciless this time and was still able to best Naruto in battle. The rest of the village started to give up on him and Sakura tried to convince Naruto to do the same but he refused to give up. The two later met again during the fourth war and Sasuke decided to protect the village after learning the truth about his brother Itachi. Both fought side by side just like old times. Naruto and Sasuke later spoke to the sage of six paths and found out that they were the latest reincarnations of Asura and Indra who had a serious conflict. After defeating Kaguya, Sasuke resolved to destroy the Kage and Naruto was forced to fight him once again. Naruto managed to win the battle and finally resolved their issue. Thanks to the influence of the latter, Sasuke's status as an international criminal was cleared. The two would remain good friends and their families also ended up being close.
Boruto: Kawaki Arc
After Sasuke found out about the ten-tails, Jigen arrived to the Uzumaki house to take Kawaki, but Naruto stood for him and instead he as taken to another place. Sasuke arrived thanks to his rinnegan and both started a fight against him. After realizing it would be impossible to beat Jigen in the way they are, Naruto told Sasuke that he should escape. Sasuke denied, since he wasn't leaving without him and he was worried that if he leave him, Jigen would killed him. Naruto at last convinced him to leave. Finally when Sasuke arrived to Konoha, he said to himself: When Naruto activated his Barion mode fighting Isshiki, Sasuke kind of scolds him since he realized he's spending to much chrakra. In cause of this, Naruto collapsed, and Sasuke worriedly went to check on him. Naruto woke up and saw Sasuke worried watching him, while Naruto was laying in Sasuke's leg.

The ship is one of the classic Rival ships. Fans typically tend to ship rivals in all series, however Sasuke and Naruto developing past merely just rivals, meant that the way the ship was interpreted by fans also developed.

Fics often explore this aspect and ways in which Naruto would bring back Sasuke. More serious fics often also delve into the heartbreak Naruto feels whenever Sasuke leaves and whether or not Sasuke returns those feelings.

Oct 27, 2018 · Naruto isn't homosexual as in preferring the same sex since at the end of the series, Naruto marries Hinata and has 2 children, Boruto and Himawari. Sasuke too gets married to Sakura and has a child named Sarada. However, like any fandom, there is also those who like/love same-sex shipping.
Not sure If he is gay, more likely asexual. He clearly doesn't love Sakura but he doesnt show interest in men. Considering Naruto's target, sexuality drama will never be addressed but it seems a very heteronormative world with medieval rules on dating, in which men and women are pushed to marry in their late teens.
Oct 13, 2020 · In the Naruto series, one of the things many fans often wondered was whether Sasuke was gay. And it runs deeper than shipping or fan fiction because the story featured him rebuffing a lot of women, especially as he got older.
Sep 26, 2011 · I had a friend tell me the other day that the creator of Naruto originally wanted Naruto and Sasuke to be in a relationship, or well Naruto chases Sasuke. Not sure whether to believe him or not, but personally I would love Naruto X Sasuke.
