It’s fair to say that Cody Gakpo has lived up to his billing so far at the 2022 World Cup.
With three goals in three games – one with his head, one with his left-foot and one with his right – the Netherlands forward has been one of the stars of the group stage, and he will be looking to continue his scoring form as the Oranje take on the USA in the last 16 on Saturday.
Gakpo arrived into the tournament with a reputation as one of the up-and-coming stars of European football and the 23-year-old’s performances for PSV Eindhoven this season, where he has been directly involved in 29 goals in all competitions, have attracted the attention of a host of clubs across the continent.
That interest will only strengthen given his showings in Qatar, with rumours already circulating that a January move could be in the offing.
But where might he end up? Who can afford him, who needs him the most and who is likeliest to make their move?
GOAL runs through the options…
