The Eindhoven striker has been in AC Milan's sights and has been scouting players for several months.
The 23-year-old played 47 games in all competitions for Eredivisie powerhouse Eindhoven last season, including 39 appearances as a starter, scoring 21 goals and 15 assists, winning the Eredivisie Golden Boot, helping the team win the Dutch Super Cup and the Dutch Cup, as well as runners-up in the Eredivisie.
According to the Italian media, the Rossoneri are currently interested in bringing in the Dutch striker, and the giants who have just won the Serie A title after 11 years have been paying attention to it for several months and are very much in recognition of the multi-faceted nature of the players on the offensive end. It is reported that AC Milan has sent someone to meet with an intermediary to discuss the feasibility of the transfer operation.
Gakpo, trained by Eindhoven's own youth system, has dual citizenship of the Netherlands and Togo. He made his first-team debut in 2017/18 and gradually gained a foothold in the following season. Over time, his experience and abilities have continued to improve, and he has now become the team's undisputed top scorer.
Ghackpo can play multiple positions on the offensive end, whether it is a shadow striker or a right winger, even if it is a forward role. He has averaged 2.9 successes in the league this season, with a success rate of 59%, and more times in European games, averaging 4 times per game, with a success rate of 76%.
According to the estimates of the transfer market of football's authoritative website, the value of the player is about 30 million euros, and the existing contract will expire in the summer of 2026. In the Eredivisie, his excellent dribbling, key passes and finishing ability were fully demonstrated, and Arsenal from the Premier League are also closely watching Gakpo's movements.
