Cody Gakpo would improve Spurs
Gakpo has been a useful player for Liverpool, and it remains to be seen whether they are prepared to sanction his departure to a rival club. The 27-year-old is having an impressive World Cup campaign, and he could prove to be a quality acquisition for Tottenham.
They need more attacking quality in the final third, and the 27-year-old Netherlands international can operate anywhere across the front three. Gakpo will help create opportunities and can consistently find the back of the net.
Gakpo might struggle for regular opportunities at Liverpool next season, especially with the club looking to bring in multiple wide players. It would be ideal for the 27-year-old to move on and join a club where he can play regularly.
