Arsenal were linked with a move for Gakpo earlier in the window before they prioritised a deal for Raphinha which, of course, didn’t materialise.

Links to the Dutchman resurfaced last week, but it’ll take plenty to snatch him away from PSV, who don’t want to sell the young forward – or any of their players for that matter – before their Champions League qualifier with Monaco at the start of August.

Thus, Arsenal may have to be patient and pay a pretty penny to sign Gakpo, but if the Dutchman is who Arteta wants, then I’m sure Edu will try his utmost to charm the Dutch giants.

While he differs stylistically from Raphinha, Gakpo would be considered an alternative to the Brazilian. The Dutch international can play across the front line and is revered for his powerful ball-carrying and leadership skills.
