"I have no doubts about C. Gakpo. The Dutchman was great during the preseason.

He also started the new season very well...

C. Gakpo finished the match as a forward to help us resolve the game.”

"It’s good to have this player in the squad.”

27-year-old Cody Gakpo has been playing for "Liverpool” since 2023 and has scored 51 goals in 183 matches.
