Manchester City have made Cody Gakpo one of their major attacking targets as they look to strengthen their options on the wings before the transfer window closes. Talks with Liverpool have advanced rapidly, with reports indicating that the player is keen on a move to the Etihad.

Gakpo, who joined Liverpool from PSV Eindhoven in 2023, has established himself as an important attacking player in the Premier League. His ability to operate from the left wing while also playing centrally makes him an attractive option for City’s attack.

The move would represent a huge Premier League transfer, particularly with Liverpool simultaneously closing in on Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain. Liverpool’s decision over Gakpo’s future could therefore become one of the biggest stories of deadline day.

Manchester City have recently seen several wide attackers leave, increasing the need for additional depth in those positions. Gakpo’s versatility, physical presence and goal threat could make him a major addition to City’s squad.
