PSV Eindhoven's Cody Gakpo admits that he "likes Arsenal a lot" amid speculation surrounding a possible summer move to the Emirates.

PSV Eindhoven attacker Cody Gakpo has spoken of his admiration for Arsenal amid rumours surrounding a possible move to the Emirates Stadium.

Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is supposedly interested in bringing two new frontmen to the club this summer, with Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah set to leave on free transfers.

Netherlands starlet Gakpo is believed to be on the Gunners' radar, and the 22-year-old has now added fuel to the fire by expressing his admiration for the North London club.

"The Premier League is a big league. Virgil van Dijk plays there with Liverpool so I like to watch them," Gakpo told the press, as quoted by FourFourTwo.

"We are not the same kind of league but I think we try to look at the Prem and learn about it. Everybody wants to play one time in the Prem. I don't favour one team but I like Arsenal a lot. I looked up to Henry when I was younger because he was a tall guy who played on the wing."

Arsenal are rumoured to be in pole position to sign Gakpo, who has scored 17 goals and provided 15 assists in 38 games across all tournaments during the 2021-22 campaign.
