Tottenham Turn Attention to Cody Gakpo
Tottenham are pushing to sign Liverpool winger Cody Gakpo as the North London club continue their massive summer rebuild.
The situation has become particularly interesting because Liverpool are simultaneously trying to sign Bradley Barcola.
Spurs Want Gakpo
Tottenham have reportedly intensified their efforts to sign the Dutch international.
Gakpo’s ability to play as a winger or striker makes him an attractive option for Roberto De Zerbi.
Gakpo Could Be Open to the Move
Reports suggest the Liverpool forward is leaning towards a move to Tottenham.
That could make negotiations easier if the clubs can agree on a fee. Talksport
Liverpool Have a Problem
Liverpool do not want to lose Gakpo without bringing in another attacking player.
That is why the Barcola negotiations are so important.
Barcola Could Decide Everything
If Liverpool successfully sign Barcola, Gakpo’s departure could become easier to accept.
If the Barcola deal collapses, Liverpool may decide to keep the Dutchman.
Tottenham Are Spending Big
Spurs have already completed the £85 million signing of Savinho and are also working on Omar Marmoush.
Adding Gakpo would make their attack even more dangerous.
Deadline Day Could Produce a Swap of Attacking Stars
Liverpool and Tottenham could both end the window with major attacking changes.
The next few days could decide whether Gakpo stays at Anfield or moves to London
