Manchester United agreed personal terms with PSV starlet Cody Gakpo this summer, according to reports.
Starting off his much-needed rebuild, manager Erik ten Hag struck-up deals for six players during his first window, including Casemiro from Real Madrid and Christian Eriksen on a free transfer. In attacking quarters, meanwhile, Ten Hag swooped for Antony from his former club Ajax.
His signature cost United a fee rising to €100million, and while the club were being linked with the Brazilian, it was Gakpo who was being earmarked as a potential alternative. Gakpo himself thought the transfer was close and now reports have emerged claiming that a contract was mapped out.
