Viktor Gyokeres 'obsession' comes to light as Man United handed £35m transfer twist

Manchester United will look to continue their business in the summer transfer window when it reopens on Monday, June 16.

This year, the transfer window was split into two phases due to the FIFA Club World Cup taking place in the United States. The first phase officially opened on June 1 and ran for nine days, closing at 7pm on June 10

They are reportedly 'acting to close a deal' as they try to take advantage of all the noise between the striker and Sporting. The Portuguese giants are thought to have increased his transfer value from £50million to £67.7m - a decision that left Gyokeres 'angered.'
