Former Chelsea and France defender Frank Leboeuf has advised Arsenal against signing Cody Gakpo despite the PSV winger being a 'good target' in the January transfer window.
Gakpo has been linked with Arsenal following an injury suffered by Gabriel Jesus while on international duty at the World Cup which could see the Brazil striker ruled out until February. Jesus has become a pivotal member of Mikel Arteta's side and a move for Gakpo would hope to mitigate the loss of the 24-year-old.
However, he is not a natural number nine in the mould of Jesus and a potential move could see a shift for Gabriel Martinelli into a central role with Gakpo operating in the left-wing position which he is more suited to. He would remain a goal threat from this wide position, having scored three times at the World Cup in addition to his 13 goals so far this season for PSV.
