​Man Utd focusing on PSV ace Gakpo after Ajax reject Antony bid

Manchester United are turning their attention to PSV Eindhoven star Cody Gakpo.

The wide forward, who plays on the left-wing, is the alternative to Ajax star Antony.

The Red Devils were eager to secure the Brazil forward from manager Erik ten Hag's former club.

However, Ajax have put a prohibitive price tag on his signature, per The Athletic.

They rejected a fee of as high as €80 million, which means United will move on to Gakpo.

The Netherlands star is happy at PSV, but will be tempted by a move to the Premier League.

United are also close to signing Casemiro from Real Madrid.
