Man Utd face £20million problem after transfer target's World Cup showing

Manchester United transfer target Cody Gakpo has added another £20million to his price tag with his World Cup displays, according to Wes Brown.

The former Old Trafford star believes the Red Devils need to try and add a new face to their forward line after Cristiano Ronaldo's sudden exit. The Portuguese star was by no means a regular, but his departure leaves Erik ten Hag light with the club still competing on several fronts.

Gakpo was linked with United in the summer but remained at PSV Eindhoven. He has continued to find the goal with regularity in the Netherlands and has carried that form over to Qatar, scoring three times for the Dutch as they topped their group. Brown believes he'd be an ideal fit - but expects his value has skyrocketed.
