Brian Brobbey Becomes A Hot Commodity In The Premier League
JAKARTA - Ajax Amsterdam striker Brian Brobbey is the target of a big Premier League club. His name is associated with Manchester United and Arsenal.
The Dutchman has indeed expressed his desire to play in the Premier League.
Tit for tat, Manchester United and Arsenal are competing to get Brobbey. Reportedly, Ajax cost the 22-year-old player 30 million pounds.

However, United's efforts could be raw if they couldn't win in a negotiation battle with Arsenal.
The Gunners manager Mikel Arteta has also been monitoring Brobbey for a long time. He felt the striker could provide alternative options other than Gabriel Jesus who is prone to injury in attack lines.
Brobbey also had time to reveal that he chose Manchester United. It's just that, recently speculation developed.
The Dutch Under-21 striker is also fine if he joins Arsenal.
"Arsenal, I think it's a very good club. If you look at the stadium, a very good club."
"However, that also applies to Manchester United, Barcelona, and Real Madrid. I have a contract until 2027. Currently I am only with Ajax," Brobbey told NOS Jeugdjournal.
The problem is, it all depends on Ajax. Brobbey still has a contract until June 2027.
In addition to the two big English clubs, Brobbey is also linked to a number of Italian clubs.
Brobbey, who scored 21 goals last season for Ajax, is now focusing with the Dutch squad at Euro 2024.
The Netherlands will face England in the semifinals on Wednesday, July 10, 2024.
Meanwhile, while lobbying Brobbey, Manchester United also approached his Bolog player, Joshua Kirkzee, who is also from the Netherlands.
In addition, there is the name Benjamin Sesko who plays well with Slovenia at Euro 2024. Sesko is also associated with United and Arsenal despite reports that he is ready to extend his stay at RB Leipzig.
