are the favorites to sign a highly rated 22-year-old attacker capable of playing across the frontline.
Despite signing a new contract in January, Arsenal is one of a few clubs interested in signing PSV star Cody Gakpo.
Gakpo has been a standout performer for the Eredivisie club this season, scoring and assisting 30 times in 36 games, spanning the frontline and even making the senior Netherlands squad. Mikel Arteta, who is expected to sign two forwards this summer, fits the bill as a rotational option at the Emirates Stadium.
Even Gakpo's recent contract extension with the one-time European champions until 2026 may not be a major impediment to reaching an agreement.
The young Dutchman could play in any of three positions in Arsenal's formation. Gakpo, a right-footer with the ability to cut in, fits best on the left side of a front three, but he can also play up front or on the right.
Arteta, who values versatility, may put him to the test in every position.
