PSV general manager Marcel Brands confirmed Gakpo’s anticipated transfer would be a “record” for the Eredivisie club.
Hirving Lozano’s move to Napoli in 2019 for a reported 42 million euros was the previous highest sale by the Dutch outfit.
A club statement added: “Both clubs are not making any announcements about the transfer fee.”
“But this is a record transfer for PSV,” said general manager Brands.
