Brian Brobbey has addressed reports linking him with a move to Manchester United - but the 21-year-old says he will be staying in the Eredivisie with Ajax.
Sky Germany reported last week that United manager Erik ten Hag had pinpointed the Holland international as part of a 'two-man transfer priority list' which also featured Bologna goal-getter Joshua Zirkzee. The former RB Leipzig striker has previously been a target at Old Trafford as they looked to hijack Ajax's ploy to bring him back to Amsterdam, following his disappointing stint in Germany with Die Roten Bullen.
Ten Hag handed Brobbey his debut at the Johan Cruyff Arena as an 18-year-old and the striker is firing on all cylinders as he looks to inspire a turnaround for John van't Schip's side. Brobbey scored twice in Sunday's 4-1 win over RKC as Ajax reduced the gap between themselves and a Champions League qualification spot to just six points - after being bottom of the table in November.

The 21-year-old hasn't been afraid to discuss transfer interest for his services in the past but he shut down the January speculation linking him with a move to the Premier League, although he didn't rule out a summer transfer.
"I don’t know anything, I’ve also seen it in the news. I’m staying in Amsterdam. Can they come back in the summer? Who knows," Brobbey said.
"No, I have no contact with Erik. We used to text sometimes, but Erik has enough on his mind and I have a new number."
The firm stance has been echoed by the Ajax boss that Brobbey is not for sale. The Dutchman only returned to Ajax in
