Liverpool set a hefty price for the sale of Gakpo
Liverpool have set their asking price for Dutch winger Cody Gakpo during the current summer transfer window, amid continued interest from Tottenham Hotspur. According to a report published by Anfield Watch, the Reds will not consider any offer below £72 million, believing Gakpo possesses significant experience and an impressive track record at the highest level, making him one of the most sought-after wingers in the transfer market. The report explained that Liverpool's financial valuation is based on the major deals completed this summer, noting that Anthony Gordon's move to Barcelona for around £69 million reinforces the club's belief that Gakpo is worth a higher price, given his international experience and performances for the team. Despite Gakpo being linked with Tottenham in recent weeks, Liverpool's high asking price is proving to be an obstacle to completing the deal, prompting the London club to explore other options to bolster their attacking options. Meanwhile, Tottenham continues its negotiations with Manchester City to sign Brazilian winger Savinho, without closing the door on the possibility of signing more than one winger during the summer transfer window, if the right opportunity arises.
