Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is keeping a close eye on the World Cup as he seeks to find a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo in his squad.
The Portuguese superstar ended his relationship with United by mutual consent earlier last month, following his bombshell interview with Piers Morgan. His departure from Old Trafford leaves Anthony Martial, who has missed much of the season through injury, and Marcus Rashford as the only two senior forwards in Ten Hag’s squad.
PSV Eindhoven forward Cody Gakpo is the player who has been most frequently linked with a move to United. Gakpo has attracted Premier League attention and has spoken directly about United’s interest in his services.
