Fichajes: Milan to compete with Real Madrid and Man Utd to sign PSV star | OneFootball

AC Milan are one of the teams that have registered an interest in signing Cody Gakpo from PSV Eindhoven, according to a report.

Fichajes.net report that Real Madrid are following the situation of Gakpo closely as he continues his excellent form from last season given he has racked up 12 goals and 8 assists between the Eredivisie and the UEFA Europa League in 2022-23 so far.

His performances seem to suggest he will not be at PSV for a long time but it is expected that his eventual transfer will exceed €50m, and there are three clubs that will compete with Real Madrid for the signing of the Dutchman.

The first club are Manchester United, and Gakpo was a direct request from head coach Erik Ten Hag, who knows him well from his time coaching Ajax in the Eredivisie. A move did not materialise over the summer, but they will go abck in.

Leeds United are another team that are keen on the 23-year-old who could land at Elland Road to replace Raphinha, who made the move to FC Barcelona over the summer.

Finally, the report states that Milan are also following the development of Gakpo and could try to sign him as early as January or even agree a deal before then, given a good showing at the World Cup in Qatar would raise his price considerably.
