Leeds United Chat • Cody Gakpo-RUMOUR
The downside is first of all Southampton seem to be favourites and far more active in there pursuit whereas we are dithering.
And finally for reasons I can't fathom it seems to be dependant on Dan James leaving.
Anyway Cody has impeccable timing having just scored a hattrick whilst Captaining PSV literally within the last hour.
A tall and powerful winger with the ability to play up front Gakpo is considered one of the next crop of Dutch football stars.
On fire this season, he has 6 goals and 3 assists in 4 Eredivisie games.
He has 33 goals and 30 assists in 5589 minutes in the Dutch League which give him an incredible goal or assist every 93 minutes.
For comparison Antony who Manure have just spent almost £100mil on managed in the same league (and less than a year younger) a goal contribution every 115 minutes.
Frankly the price of around £25mil is a bargain.
We should be all over this regardless of Dan James.
