Cody Gakpo’s return to PSV Eindhoven was marred by ugly scenes as a fan invaded the pitch and attacked Sevilla goalkeeper Marko Dmitrovic on Thursday.
The Dutchman joined Liverpool for an initial £37m in January, having spent 16 years at PSV, scoring 55 goals from 159 appearances for his boyhood club. Captain of the Eredivisie side before his departure, Gakpo scored 13 goals from 24 appearances for the Dutch outfit during the first half of the season.
PSV hosted Sevilla in the Europa League on Thursday night, and welcomed Gakpo back to the Phillips Stadion as he bid an official farewell to his former club. At half-time a banner of the forward was unveiled by fans as he was paraded on the pitch and gifted a framed shirt.
