Cody Gakpo Spurs Move Gains Pace in Liverpool Diomande Transfer News
Tottenham are preparing to move for Cody Gakpo, and liverpool diomande transfer news now points to a Liverpool winger who wants out after Arne Slot’s exit from Anfield. That leaves a possible summer chase around a player who has already been linked with a switch away from a fifth-place Liverpool side.
Cody Gakpo and Tottenham
Gakpo has been linked with Tottenham, which has serious interest in him and intends to try to pry him away in the coming period. Reports say the Dutch winger also wishes to leave Liverpool after Slot was sacked late last month.
Tottenham’s interest is not isolated. Several clubs in England, Spain, and Germany are also interested in the player from Eindhoven, and intermediaries have already been offering him to clubs across the Premier League and Europe.
Slot Exit Changes Liverpool
The timing matters because Liverpool appointed Andoni Iraola as head coach on Thursday after ending the season trophyless and fifth in the Premier League. That has left the club in a clear rebuild phase, with Andy Robertson already having joined Tottenham on a free transfer and Ibrahima Konate looking set to join Real Madrid.
Mohamed Salah is also set to leave for another club this summer, which means Gakpo is not the only first-team name being pushed toward an exit. Liverpool’s forward group already looks unsettled before any bid for the winger even lands.
Gakpo Form And Market
Gakpo’s stock has been debated for months. Danny Murphy said in March that he had “fallen off the cliff,” and at the beginning of March he added: “Gakpo has fallen off the cliff compared to his form last season, and obviously Diaz was a blow, losing him, Isak has not been fit, but creativity and firepower ain’t there.”
Graeme Bailey then said toward the end of March that Gakpo had genuine chances to leave Liverpool in the summer with Tottenham among numerous clubs circling. That sequence has now turned into a more concrete market for Spurs, who are already bidding for Brighton defender Jan Paul van Hecke this week while also building around Xavi Simons and Micky van der Ven.
For Liverpool, the practical issue is simple: if Tottenham push ahead, the club will have to decide whether to cash in on a winger who wants out or keep him in a squad that is already changing fast. For Gakpo, the next step is whether Spurs turn interest into a bid strong enough to pull him toward London.
