Tyrell Malacia's five-word Cody Gakpo verdict speaks volumes amid Man Utd links

Tyrell Malacia has insisted that his Netherlands teammate Cody Gakpo is "good enough for the top" as the forward continues to be linked with a January switch to Manchester United.

United are avid admirers of Gakpo and were close to pulling the trigger on a £25million move for the PSV Eindhoven star in the summer. And although Erik ten Hag eventually decided to press ahead with a mega-money deal for Antony, United are still courting Gakpo ahead of the January transfer window.

The 23-year-old has dazzled on the global stage for his country and is currently the World Cup's joint-leading goalscorer along with the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Marcus Rashford after plundering three goals in four games for the quarter-finalists.
