Fabrizio Romano says Tottenham eye Cody Gakpo

Fabrizio Romano said there is interest in Cody Gakpo from Tottenham Hotspur. The interest follows Andoni Iraola's appointment as Liverpool manager. Liverpool finished fifth in the Premier League this term.

Andoni Iraola arrived after guiding Bournemouth to Europa League qualification. His tactical approach differs from Arne Slot's. The change suggests Liverpool may reshape the squad.

Cody Gakpo contributed 25 goals across all competitions in the 2024-25 season alongside Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah. Fans have expressed a love‑hate relationship with him since his arrival. This season his form has dipped, with supporters calling for his removal. Liverpool, a sell‑to‑buy club, are looking to offload talent to fund new signings.

Tottenham, under Roberto De Zerbi, are rebuilding after recent under‑performance. De Zerbi is scouting the market, and a swap involving Micky van de Ven could accompany a £51 million move for Gakpo. The final decision rests with Liverpool and Andoni Iraola. With the World Cup approaching, the club aims to resolve the matter before the new season.
