“I think everyone knows that a club has to make an outgoing transfer every year. That’s in the budget. So did we, but in the end, there was not such a good offer on the table that we really considered letting him go.” Speaking more generally about how the transfer window impacted Gakpo and the club, De Jong added: “It’s hard, it was hard for Cody too. We got together on Thursday morning to discuss it.”
De Jong also revealed that Manchester United’s interest in Gakpo “faded” towards the end of the window.De Jong added: “Manchester United signed up at the beginning of the transfer period. They expressed their interest. But after that, it took a long time.“Then it seemed to get more concrete, but that faded and at the end of the window the option to sell him to United was no longer there.”
