Viktor Gyokeres Man United transfer U-turn as £34m 'offer' made to replace Erik ten Hag flop

Manchester United's summer transfer business is starting to ramp back up following a positive start to the window. Ruben Amorim's side got a deal done on June 1, as Matheus Cunha made the £62.5million move from Wolves.

Shortly after, Bryan Mbeumo expressed his desire to move to Old Trafford despite interest from Newcastle United and Tottenham. A move for the Brentford man has been rumbling along for the entire month, but now it appears that United are closing in on securing Mbeumo's signature, with a £60m swoop all-but done.

Young left-back Diego Leon is also set to join the club from Cerro Porteño for a fee of £3.3million fee, rising to £7m with add-ons. Work is still to be done though, with Amorim aiming for significant improvement following the disappointment of the last campaign.

Viktor Gyokeres has put Manchester United into pole position for his signature after making a U-turn on a move to Arsenal, according to the Daily Mirror.

The Sporting CP forward scored 54 goals and added 13 assists in 52 matches last season and turned down a move to Juventus and Saudi Arabia last month.

With the Gunners expected to target Benjamin Sesko, Gyokeres is now prepared to reunite with former Sporting head coach Ruben Amorim, and his representatives have made contact.

MEN says: I think Viktor Gyokeres would be perfect for Manchester United. He has worked with Ruben Amorim before, having spent 18 months together at Sporting, and I feel he can fit straight into his 3-4-2-1 formation at Old Trafford, leading the line and firing United back up the table.

United should attempt to get Rasmus Hojlund off the books, sell him for £40m and reinvest
