Arsenal may be handed a clear run at landing PSV Eindhoven forward Cody Gakpo amid a transfer warning to rivals Manchester United over the move. It comes as the Netherlands international continues to impress, contributing in 21 goals in just 14 league appearances this season.
It led to the 23-year-old earning a call-up from Louis Van Gaal for the Dutch national team squad to take part in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. His form has continued on the world stage too, scoring two crucial goals for his side in their two games so far as they eye qualification for the round of 16.
Gakpo could be an ideal addition to the Gunners in January as they sit top of the Premier League, but require further depth if they want to challenge late in the campaign. The wide areas are of particular concern, while the forward can play anywhere across the front line, so adds that versatility.
