Rangers to face big money Manchester United target in Champions League as Red Devils talk binned

PSV manager Ruud van Nistelrooy says all talk of a big money move to Manchester United for Cody Gakpo has been parked in their preparation to face Rangers.

The Light Blues and Eredivisie heavyweights go toe-to-toe this month in the Champions League play-offs, looking to reach the lucrative group stage phase. Gakpo is the subject of a huge £35million switch to Manchester United as part of new boss Erik Ten Hag's Old Trafford revolution, but former Red Devils striker van Nistelrooy is not fussed.

His star man has been laser-focused on taking on Rangers and domestic matters which has pleased Van Nistelrooy.

He told the Daily Record : "What I think is so clever about Cody is that he tries to park it all. Of course a lot is happening around Cody at the moment, you can't close off the world.

"But when I talk to him, it's only about how he can improve as a player at PSV. And so I don't talk to him about a possible choice for abroad, because that is not an issue at all.

"If he asks to speak? Then we will talk about it and then I can give him some advice, but nothing is going on."
