Bayern Munich are scanning the Premier League for attacking reinforcements, and their eyes have landed on a familiar name at Anfield.
According to Bundesliga insider Christian Falk, Liverpool’s Cody Gakpo has emerged as a ‘personal favourite’ of Bayern sporting director Max Eberl.
That may change quickly if Bayern’s winger shortlist continues to thin.

Gakpo was instrumental in Liverpool’s title-winning 2024/25 season, combining for 35 goals and 15 assists with teammate Luis Diaz.
The Dutchman remains under contract until 2028 and is considered central to Arne Slot’s long-term plans.
Slot’s Eredivisie background and strong rapport with Gakpo strengthen Liverpool’s stance.
The manager views him as a crucial part of the squad moving forward, making any potential exit unlikely.
Bayern may still test the waters, but Liverpool hold the leverage.
Unless Gakpo himself pushes for a move, there is no indication the Reds will entertain bids.
For now, Eberl’s admiration remains just a compliment, not a cue for departure.
