The Netherlands international's 22 league goals last season helped PSV land the Dutch title after a seven-year hiatus.
But the 21-year-old is leaving sentiment behind in his new job with United, whose opening Group B game is at the Philips Stadium, and has no intention in following the trend of not celebrating scoring goals against former clubs.
"It is the club where I spent 10 years and very special to me," he said of PSV in the pre-match news conference on Monday.
"But if I play and I score, I'm celebrating," he told reporters. "That doesn't mean that I don't have respect for PSV. Of course, I do."
