PSV Eindhoven have offered Arsenal a significant transfer boost in their pursuit of Dutch talent Cody Gakpo after signing winger Anwar El Ghazi from Aston Villa.
The Gunners are said to be interested in signing a new winger with Pedro Neto thought to be the 'priority' target ahead of the summer transfer window closing on Thursday. Wolves' reluctancy to sell and demand for a £50million fee means a move to the Emirates Stadium is 'improbable' which may now see Arsenal refocus their efforts on securing a deal for Gakpo.
football.london understands the north London outfit have held a long-term interest in the 21-year-old and are interested in signing him this summer, though a deal may prove difficult due to his desire to play regular first team football ahead of the 2022 World Cup. One stumbling block was the appeal of Champions League football, but after PSV missed out on qualifying for Europe's elite club competition, a move now could be back on the cards.
