20:25 – The transfer soap around Brian Brobbey may take a surprising turn. Where Ajax has been linked to the striker for weeks, Erik ten Hag would also like to bring the attacker to Manchester United. The coach would see opportunities now that the negotiations between the team from Amsterdam and RB Leizpig are going extremely difficult.
Brobbey left for the Bundesliga club on a free transfer last summer, but was unable to break any pots there. After six months, he returned to the Johan Cruijff ArenA on a rental basis. The attacker turned out to be the ideal weapon for the team. He was crucial in the title fight with several goals. Ten Hag would feel that the talented attacker can also be of value to his team in the Premier League. That is why he wants to beat the team from Amsterdam on the transfer market.
Leipzig would now be open to a departure from the attacker, as he appeared reluctantly at the team’s training this week. Bundesliga club policymakers are not in the mood to pull a dead horse, as it has been clear for some time that Brobbey has set his sights on a permanent departure. Where De Telegraaf reported that the Germans want 25 million euros for the goal-getter, BILD states that 15 million euros is enough to buy off his contract that runs until 2025.
Whether Brobbey is open to an English adventure remains to be seen. He already said that he would like to go to the Dutch national champion, but Ten Hag may still be able to make a difference. The striker knows the coach well and knows that the coach is impressed by his potential.
