Ajax are reportedly willing to sell Brian Brobbey for as little as €25m (£21m) during this summer's transfer window, which could alert both Manchester United and Arsenal.
Brobbey has again been an important player for Ajax during the 2024-25 campaign, featuring on 38 occasions in all competitions, scoring seven times and registering five assists in the process.
The 23-year-old's future has been a point of discussion over the last year or so, with clubs from the Premier League, including Man United and Arsenal, believed to be interested in his signature.
According to SoccerNews, Ajax's financial situation means that the Dutch club need to make some first-team sales this summer, and Brobbey is viewed as a player capable of raising a healthy transfer fee.
The report claims that the Amsterdam giants are expected to accept an offer in the region of €25m (£21m), which is likely to be considered a bargain considering the astronomical fees for players in the modern game.
Ajax 'willing to sell' Man United, Arsenal-linked Brobbey for £21m
Brobbey came through the youth system at Ajax, but he spent the 2021-22 campaign with RB Leipzig, joining the German outfit on a permanent basis in the summer of 2021.
The Netherlands international failed to settle with Leipzig, which led to him returning to Ajax, initially on loan, with a permanent move back to Amsterdam occurring in the summer of 2022.
In total, the forward has represented his current side on 157 occasions, scoring 56 goals and registering 22 assists, while he has managed one goal in seven appearances for the Netherlands.
Could Man United or Arsenal move for Brobbey?
There is no absolutely no question that both Man United and Arsenal will move for new strikers during this summer's transfer window, with the pair having their issues in the final third of the field this season.
It is not impossible to imagine Arsenal signing two forwards, while the same can be said for Man United if either Rasmus Hojlund or Joshua Zirkzee leave, and Brobbey could be the ideal back-up striker for either club.
It would be a big ask for Brobbey to come in and be the starting forward in either team, but for £21m, he is certainly worth a look, with the Dutchman boasting the skill set required to be a success in the Premier League.
Brobbey was unable to make his mark in his only spell away from Ajax earlier in his career, but the forward has developed since then, and he would be a smart signing for either Premier League club during this summer's transfer window. body check tags ::
