Both Manchester City and Tottenham are understood to have made bids in an effort to bring him to their respective clubs, yet Liverpool will not be losing the player at this stage.

For Gakpo, the focus now returns fully to Liverpool. The situation had the potential to become one of the notable late stories of the day, particularly with two major clubs attempting to secure a deal, but Liverpool’s position has resulted in continuity.

Gakpo’s task is now straightforward: remain part of the Liverpool squad and work to earn his role in the team. Manchester City and Tottenham will have to move on from their efforts, while Liverpool keep a player who had attracted late attention.
