Cody Gakpo has suggested that he could still leave PSV Eindhoven and join Manchester United - despite Antony’s pending transfer to Old Trafford.
Antony is now poised to join United in a €100million (£84m) deal from Ajax. The Brazilian winger has been pushing for the move and desperately wants to be reunited with Erik ten Hag in the Premier League. The 22-year-old’s big-money move to United was understood to have pushed Gakpo onto the backburner.
However, there remains some uncertainty around the situation, with the possibility that United might sign Gakpo as well being given credibility by the winger’s own words on the weekend. Gakpo scored and grabbed two assists in PSV’s 6-1 win over Excelsior on Sunday before speaking to ESPN about his future.
