Tottenham Hold Talks With Liverpool Over Cody Gakpo

They test Liverpool's willingness to sell a player under a long-term contract during an attacking rebuild at Anfield.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets reported Monday that Tottenham have held exploratory talks with Liverpool about signing Cody Gakpo, but no transfer has been agreed.
  • Transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano says Liverpool have not decided to sell Gakpo and are not currently opening the door to his exit.
  • Liverpool have already signed Víctor Muñoz and shown interest in Yan Diomande, moves that increase competition for the left‑wing role Gakpo prefers.
  • Gakpo is contracted to Liverpool until 2030 and several reports put his asking price at roughly £65m or higher, a fee Tottenham may be reluctant to meet.
  • Gakpo’s desire for regular first‑team minutes, his revived World Cup form, and Spurs’ parallel interest in targets such as Savinho will shape whether talks become a formal bid.
