Cody Gakpo: Tottenham linked with move for Liverpool’s Netherlands-Togo winger

Netherlands-Togo forward Cody Gakpo, the 27-year-old Liverpool left winger, is being linked with a move to Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

The Liverpool No 18, valued at €60.00m on Transfermarkt, is the subject of fresh speculation over his Anfield future, with Spurs reportedly monitoring his situation as they look to bolster their attacking options. The rumour, logged on 6 June 2026, carries an unspecified probability (“?”), underlining that discussions are at a very early stage and no agreement is in place.

Gakpo’s contractual status at Liverpool is unclear, with no expiry date listed, and there is currently no suggestion he is close to becoming a free agent. However, the lack of publicly available detail on the length of his deal has fuelled talk that clubs such as Tottenham are assessing whether a move could be negotiated below his headline market valuation.

Born in Eindhoven on 7 May 1999, the 1.93m right-footed attacker is primarily deployed as a left winger but can operate across the front line. He holds dual nationality with the Netherlands and Togo and has established himself as a high-profile figure in European football since moving to Liverpool from the Eredivisie, following his breakthrough years at PSV Eindhoven.

The latest round of rumours comes on the back of another prominent campaign in England’s top flight, where he has been part of Liverpool’s attacking rotation in the Premier League. In a recent outing for Liverpool – a league fixture against domestic opposition earlier this year – Gakpo featured in a winning side, contributing with his off-the-ball running and link-up play, although he did not get on the scoresheet in that match.

With no formal bid reported and the probability of a transfer yet to be defined, any switch from Liverpool to Tottenham remains speculative. But if a deal were to materialise, a move across north London could prove pivotal in shaping Gakpo’s next peak years, his status in the Premier League, and the broader trajectory of his career.
