Manchester United is attempting to capture both Antony of Ajax and Cody Gakpo of PSV Eindhoven in the final days of the summer transfer season.
The Premier League heavyweights have spent roughly €82.5 million to recruit Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro, who is set to be revealed tonight at Old Trafford.
Manchester United is still looking for players, with a right-back, a forward, and another midfielder on its wish list.
The club has been pushing to sign Antony and Gakpo, but the latter was seen as an alternative if they failed to land the Brazilian winger.
However, according to Dutch daily De Telegraaf, Manchester United is now pushing to land both the Eredivisie wingers
Antony has been the top target for Manchester United all summer and they failed with an €80m bid for him last week.
Ajax is expecting Manchester United to table a €100m offer soon with Antony making it clear through his actions that he wants the move.
Gakpo wants to wait for PSV’s Champions League qualifier against Rangers on Wednesday night before taking a call but he is also keen on the move.
PSV are expected to sell the winger if they receive a fee of around €50m for the Netherlands international.
The arrival of both the players could take Manchester United’s spending to close to €300m by 1st September.
