Manchester City have approached Liverpool to discuss a possible move for Dutch international Cody Gakpo, whose pace and versatility have made him a standout performer in the Premier League this season. The club’s scouting network identified him as a fit for Pep Guardiola’s fluid front‑line, especially as City look to bolster depth ahead of a congested fixture list.
Liverpool, meanwhile, are weighing the financial return against the loss of a key attacking asset. Sources indicate the Merseyside side expects a six‑figure pound fee, reflecting Gakpo’s market value after a strong campaign, while also considering a sell‑on clause to protect future earnings.

If the deal proceeds, Gakpo could join a City squad already featuring a deep pool of forwards, potentially rotating with Erling Haaland and Phil Foden. The transfer would also free up wage budget for City and allow Liverpool to reinvest in emerging talent or a strategic replacement in the striker’s role.
