“Real Madrid is a beautiful club. Arsenal, Manchester United… How much am I worth? After the European Championships, €80m. Going to the European Championships is also a dream of mine.”
The Gunners too, like United, are also in the market for a new striker this summer and could well be alerted by the comments made by a man who has scored 17 goals in 26 Eredivisie matches this season.
Earlier this season, Brobbey confirmed he had been the subject of an approach from United boss Ten Hag over a possible swith to Old Trafford.
“Erik ten Hag called me and said that at United, my agent would get millions of euros and I could earn a multiple of my Ajax salary. But our decision was clear: we wanted to go to Ajax,” Brobbey told De Telegraaf.
“Manchester United wanted to have me, but I insisted on returning to Ajax. To make that possible, my agent Jose Fortes Rodriguez even waived a hefty percentage of the sell-on clause.”
Since breaking through at Ajax, Brobbey has scored 35 times in 83 matches for the Amsterdam giants.
His main competition for a place in the Netherlands’ Euro squad appears to be another Arsenal and United striker target in Joshua Zirkzee.
