JAKARTA - Manchester United almost certainly lost home to Gapko that Liverpool wanted to buy. Here are three players who can be on the Red Devils shopping list to replace the 23-year-old.
Initially, the club based at Old Trafford was considered the striker's favorite candidate. Their new tactician Erik ten Hag has been eyeing him since last summer.
However, Liverpool actually appeared on the surface as a potential buyer for the Dutch national team player. Gapko is expected to complete a medical test in the near future as confirmed by his club, PSV Eindhoven.
This information is clearly a blow to MU who is looking for a striker after cutting off Cristiano Ronaldo's contract. The Portuguese superstar was paved after his explosive interview with Piers Morgan.
Here are 3 Players that can be bought by MU to replace Gapko:
The Spain international forward is expected to move from the Santiago Bernabeu in January due to very few playing times under Carlo Ancelotti.
Asensio has previously been linked with the Red Devils in the past. Therefore, it is not surprising that MU wants to revive their interest in getting the services of the 26-year-old player.
The former Mallorca player is a very flexible striker. He can operate in several positions in attack lines; in the left wing, right wing, second striker, and also as the center forward.
The Napoli winger has recently become one of the biggest games in Europe during the 2022/2023 season. His performance this season puts him on the list of the best-selling attackers in Europe.
Kvaratskhelia is a left-wing striker who has extraordinary dribble abilities. To that end, he is considered suitable for Erik ten Hag's team while completing Antony who plays on the right wing.
However, his efforts to bring him in the nearest January transfer window may be complicated. The reason is, Chief Napoli Aurelio De Hukis is typical of people who are not easy to do business.
Therefore, the Red Devils can be more realistic in approaching this summer.
The Barcelona striker could be a viable option for the Red Devils. Moreover, they automatically get their services at a fairly low cost.
Depay is a player similar to Gapko. Both players prefer to play on the left wing, but can also operate as a centre-forward or second striker.
The 28-year-old forward is also more experienced than his teammate in the Dutch national team. For that, he may need a shorter time to adapt to Erik ten Hag's team.
Depay had previously spent a season and a half with Manchester United between 2015 and 2017. He recorded a total of seven goals and five assists during his time at Old Trafford before joining Lyon.
