Cody Gakpo has become the main objective of Manchester Utd since the arrival of Erik Tenhag to the Old Trafford bench. His impressive performance in the World Cup has boosted the interest of the English team in taking over the services of the Dutch attacker, but the operation is not going to be easy at all.
PSV has no intention of selling its main offensive star in the short term and there is talk of several important European teams such as Real Madrid, who would also be willing to make a million-dollar offer to get their services.

For this reason, Manchester United has a fairly clear plan B in case it does not finish finalizing the incorporation of Gakpo, who is chosen to occupy the role that Cristiano Ronaldo vacated before the World Cup.
As reported by various media outlets in England, the Red Devil group is interested in acquiring the services of Raphael Leo in the next summer transfer market with the intention of putting together a top-level attack with names like Bruno Fernandes, Anthony and company.
The Portuguese attacker ends his contract in the summer of 2024 and has made the decision to wait until after the Qatar 2022 World Cup to communicate to AC Milan about his position.
Manchester United’s problem is that there are several important clubs in Europe that are interested in taking over the services of Rafael Leao. Real Madrid, Chelsea, PSG and Manchester City have shown interest in finalizing the incorporation of him in the short term. His termination clause is 120 million euros.
