PSV Eindhoven manager Ruud van Nistelrooy has opened the door for Cody Gakpo to join Manchester United next month - after the Dutchman conceded that the club would not be able to deny the Netherlands star a dream January move.
Gakpo, 23, came close joining Erik ten Hag's side back in the summer, only for a £25million move to collapse in the final days of the transfer window. United have, however, retained an interest in the versatile attacker and are prepared to launch a fresh bid to lure him to the Premier League in the new year.
Having plundered three goals in five games for Netherlands at the World Cup, Gakpo is one of Europe's most coveted young players : Real Madrid are also believed to be interested in the PSV star, while Arsenal and Newcastle are admirers of the prolific forward.
