Liverpool make major moves to replace Cody Gakpo Is Cody Gakpo losing his place at Liverpool? A series of reports certainly suggest so. Cody Gakpo signed a new contract at Liverpool in 2025, a reward for his efforts in the title-winning campaign.

However, this season hasn’t gone to plan. Gakpo’s output fell dramatically, with 10 fewer goals this season. But more than that, he’s a casualty of Liverpool’s lack of pace.

Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez both left last summer, while Mo Salah has struggled badly. It means this squad doesn’t have any real pace or direct running up top - and that must be rectified in the transfer window. Liverpool seem to believe that it’s Gakpo’s place on the left where they can find it.
