The Dutchman is of interest to Manchester United as they look for midfield reinforcement before Friday's transfer deadline.
“I’m glad I had him as a trainer,” said Ryan Gravenberch upon Erik ten Hag’s switch to Manchester United last year.
The 21-year-old has not had the impact in Bavaria he would have hoped for. He has made just three Bundesliga starts since his move over a year ago. Even a change of manager did not help as Julian Nagelsmann was replaced by Thomas Tuchel.It led to a very candid assessment of his maiden year this summer: “I expected to play more minutes than I did. I thought I would get some more chances.
That may have grabbed the attention of United and Ten Hag, who nurtured him through to senior football at Ajax. He had told Gravenberch to be patient and be as reliable as ever in the Dutch club's youth team with the promise that this would earn him a place in the senior side. Sofyan Amrabat is unlikely to be captured by United should he leave Fiorentina despite months of speculation. Defensive midfielders are at a premium this summer with the likes of Moises Caicedo and Declan Rice going for fees north of £100m.
