According to @MounirBoualin, Manchester City contacted Cody Gakpo’s camp today, and talks have begun.

Manchester City are closely monitoring the situation of Netherlands international Cody Gakpo and could make a move amid interest from Tottenham Hotspur. Tottenham have had a £60 million offer for the 27-year-old Liverpool attacker rejected. According to Soccernews.NL, there is a plan for Tottenham to return with an improved offer. The same source reports their manager, Roberto De Zerbi, is an admirer of the player and is pushing to get the deal done. The Dutch international, who has 54 caps and 24 goals for his country, joined Liverpool from PSV in January 2023 for a reported €42M and has a contract until 2030. In August 2026, Liverpool's asking price was reported to be over £60M, with some sources citing a price of £72M.
