Erik ten Hag could not help but grin as he responded to a fresh line of questioning regarding Manchester United transfer target Cody Gakpo.
The Red Devils boss faced the press on Friday ahead of his side's return to Premier League action against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday. With a matter of days remaining until the January transfer window opens, speculation is rife about who United could sign to replace Cristiano Ronaldo, whose contract was terminated in November.
PSV Eindhoven forward Gakpo appears to be the priority target for Ten Hag, who has long admired his fellow Dutchman. The 23-year-old leads the way in goals (nine) and assists (12) in the Eredivisie this season and shone for Netherlands at the World Cup.
