PSV Eindhoven and Netherlands star Cody Gakpo has insisted he is yet to hear from Manchester United about a move in January but will “think about” a transfer if it’s offered.
Gakpo is one of the rising stars of Europe, having shined for PSV Eindhoven last season and continued that form into this season.
His reputation has only been enhanced by his performances at the World Cup, where he has been a key player for the Netherlands, bagging three goals in four games so far.
That’s seen him linked with a big money move in the January transfer window, with Manchester United named as one of his suitors.
They were keen early in the summer transfer window but elected to spend their money elsewhere, eventually securing a deal for Ajax star Antony.
They’ve remained keen, though, and reports have suggested they could use the funds they have saved from Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure to fund a move as they continue to strengthen for Erik ten Hag.
It seems, though, that despite ever increasing rumours, Manchester United are yet to get in contact with the 23-year-old.
“What comes, will come,” he told NRC.
“Suppose you want to go from RKC to PSV, but that club doesn’t come. Then you can panic. I thought about Manchester United, but when that didn’t happen, I didn’t know anymore.
“And I started having doubts. Leeds United did come. Should I go there? Now I wait and see everything.
“I haven’t heard from Manchester United yet. If they come, I will think about it. In these decisions too, I seek God’s help. I ask Him what I can do best.”
