PSV Eindhoven star Cody Gakpo has admitted that it ‘would be an honour’ to play for Manchester City as speculation surrounding his future with the Eredivisie club continues.
Gakpo is a player who has been linked with a potential move to City in recent times and it is not hard to see why.
The €45m-rated Dutch international has been in stunning form this season and looks destined for a big move sooner rather than later.
Could his destination end up being Etihad? Well, the player certainly would be happy if that ended up being the case.
According to stats from Transfermarkt, Gakpo has scored 13 goals and provided 17 assists in 24 appearances across all competitions for PSV this season. Those are remarkable numbers, especially for a left winger.
Thus, it would not come as a surprise if Manchester City are keeping close eyes on the Dutchman, as many other clubs are expected to be as well. Manchester United were heavily linked with a move for him before they ended up signing Antony. If Gakpo continues performing like this, he won’t be at PSV for too much longer though
As reported by GOAL, when talking about what club he would like to join, Gakpo told NOS:
“I think at the end of this season I will be ready to take that step. I feel like I was already that way at the start of this season, but after this season I’m even more ready to take that next step.”
“Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool. It would be an honour to play there, but I also have to see what kind of team would suit me best.”
These Cody Gakpo’s comments were shared on Twitter by City Xtra and it attracted plenty of attention from the club’s supporters.
