According to an exclusive report from the famous Daily Telegraph reporter Jason Burt, Manchester United will try to sign him again at the winter window in January for 50 million euros after Giacopo’s outstanding performance in the World Cup.
The 23-year-old has been seen by Manchester United as a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo, who agreed to terminate his contract after shelling Manchester United and Tenhag last month.
Under the circumstances that Manchester United need to bring in a new player after the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo, Tenhag has given priority to bringing in a striker in the winter window, and Manchester United want to support Tenhag’s idea.
In the previous summer window, Gakpo was a transfer target for Manchester United, but Gakpo was considered an alternative for Anthony at that time. Sources believe that the transfer fee paid by Manchester United to Ajax for Carmelo Anthony is too high, resulting in a total deal of 100 million euros, while Gacbo is much more cost-effective. However, Tenhag tried hard to fight for Anthony at that time, but now Manchester United are hoping to bring in Gakpo. In this World Cup, Gakpo scored three goals.
Both Leeds United and Southampton have made offers for Garkpo, but the players are not interested. It is understood that Gacopo wants to join Manchester United.
During the summer window, Manchester United valued Gacbo at 40 million euros, and Manchester United are now planning to bid 50 million euros.
