Watch: Manchester United target Cody Gakpo scores rocket against Ecuador

Cody Gakpo scored the opener for the Netherlands against Ecuador with a stunning strike.

The PSV Eindhoven attacker agreed personal terms with Manchester United in the summer, according to The Athletic’s Laurie Whitwell, though it’s unclear whether the Reds have any intention to reopen their pursuit to sign the player in the future.

Recent reports suggest that United have made Gakpo a priority target for the January transfer window and he is doing everything right at the World Cup, scoring two goals in as many games for the Netherlands.

Gakpo’s latest goal against Ecuador came from a powerful strike on the edge of the box.

With 30 goal contributions in 24 games for PSV this season, there’s no question that he is a player United should be looking at closely.

We are certain it won’t be his last goal at the World Cup with Gakpo currently on fire.
