As per a report in The Athletic, Everton are the latest club to show interest in Gakpo. The PSV star has been linked with a move away after an impressive 2021-22 season in the Eredivisie.
The winger was named the ‘Dutch Footballer of the Year’ after he netted 21 times and provided 15 goals last season. Gakpo’s displays helped PSV win the KNVB Cup, which saw the likes of Southampton, Leeds United, and others showing interest in the winger.
David Ornstein’s report does not mention the price tag slapped by PSV on the winger so far. However, he reports that the Saints made an offer for the Dutchman, which was swiftly rejected.
Manchester United target told not to make Old Trafford move
Sir Alex Ferguson’s former assistant Rene Meulensteen has advised Gakpo to snub a move to Manchester United. He believes the club’s transfer policy is a mess. Meulensteen added that the Dutchman could continue playing in the Champions League at PSV instead of the Europa League with the Red Devils.
Talking to Algemeen Dagblad, he said:
Meulensteen continued:
Erik ten Hag’s side have reportedly agreed a €100 million deal with Ajax for Antony. The Red Devils have also signed Tyrell Macalia, Casemiro, Christian Eriksen and Lisandro Martinez this summer.
