Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal will make a move for Liverpool target Cody Gakpo in the summer transfer window, according to Eindhovens Dagblad.

The report has claimed that PSV Eindhoven believe that Arsenal plan to make a bid for Netherlands international forward Gakpo.

Dutch giants PSV are willing to sell the 22-year-old, but they are looking for at least €40 million (£33.31m) in transfer fees.

The youngster has scored eight goals and provided 13 assists in 18 Eredivisie starts for PSV so far this season.

Gakpo has also scored two goals in four Europa League games, three goals in three UEFA Conference League appearances, and two goals in five Champions League starts this season.

Gakpo is quite versatile.

The youngster can operate on the left of a front-three, on the left wing, on the right wing, and in central attacking midfield.
