PSV and Netherlands starlet Cody Gakpo has been devastating in front of goal at the World Cup, underlining glowing comments from Robin van Persie and Ruud van Nistelrooy on his versatility, quality and mentality.
Gakpo opened the scoring against Ecuador on Friday night to earn the Netherlands a point and see them closer to progression with a game to spare. He was also on target in their opener with Senegal, as his stock continues to rise amid interest from across Europe.
United were interested in Gakpo during the summer window and, had they not moved for Antony, he might already call Old Trafford home. But will manager Erik ten Hag eventually sign the highly rated player as replacement for departed five-time Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo?
