Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag wants to be reunited with his former Ajax star Ryan Gravenberch this summer with the midfielder outlining his desire to leave Bayern Munich.
Liverpool – who have been strongly linked with a move for the player – began their January transfer window by completing the signing of Cody Gakpo from PSV Eindhoven. The Dutch international had been in the process of negotiating a deal with United, who were not decisive on a deal for the forward.
The latest developments appear to be somewhat of a role reversal, with United now looking to capitalise on Liverpool’s inability to swiftly tie up a move by gazumping their interest with a move of their own.
