After scoring three of the Netherlands five goals in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup, Cody Gakpo officially announced himself to the world on the international stage (if you somehow didn't know about him already).
On top of his trio of goals in Qatar, his 13 goals and 17 assists for his club in just 24 appearances in all competitions this season marked him out as one of the premiere European talents to watch out for coming into the tournament.
But it's been revealed that Dutch manager Louis van Gaal warned teams of the talent Gakpo possessed back when Newcastle United had a chance to sign him from PSV Eindhoven back in the summer.
