Amid ongoing speculation regarding Cody Gakpo’s future, Liverpool FC is considering a potential double winger transfer strategy this summer. The club is focused on revamping its attacking options with a keen interest in Newcastle United’s Anthony Gordon as a possible replacement.
Cody Gakpo’s Future at Liverpool
Cody Gakpo may leave Liverpool at the end of the season. Multiple clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, have expressed interest. While sources indicate that Liverpool is not actively pushing Gakpo out, intermediaries are exploring possible destinations for the Dutch forward.
- Clubs interested in Gakpo: Tottenham, Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid, RB Leipzig, Napoli, AC Milan.
Despite his flashes of talent, Gakpo has struggled to maintain consistent form this season. Liverpool’s management is reviewing their attacking setup and weighing the benefits of a potential transfer for Gakpo.
Anthony Gordon: A Target for Liverpool
As Liverpool considers reshaping their forward line, Anthony Gordon stands out as a key target. The winger has gained attention after his successful stint at Newcastle and has publicly expressed his admiration for Liverpool. However, any potential acquisition may face hurdles.
- Newcastle is not currently inclined to sell Gordon.
- Gordon’s contract, signed in 2024, does not include a release clause.
For Liverpool, acquiring Gordon would depend on Gakpo’s exit, as they do not intend to add more players to the left flank unless necessary. The situation is complicated but remains under consideration.
Other Transfer Interests and Options
Alongside Gakpo, Liverpool is also assessing long-term alternatives for right winger Mohamed Salah. RB Leipzig’s Yan Diomande has emerged as a strong candidate to fill this role. The club is also monitoring several other players, including:
- Michael Olise
- Bradley Barcola
- Desire Doue
- Maghnes Akliouche of Monaco
No formal offers for Gakpo have been made at this time. However, with intermediaries exploring the transfer market, the coming summer is set to be crucial for Liverpool’s reinstatement of their attacking strength.
