Liverpool value Tottenham target Cody Gakpo at £75m | OneFootball

Liverpool have placed a £75 million price tag on versatile forward Cody Gakpo in the wake of growing transfer interest from Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur, according to Anfield Watch.

The Reds are under no pressure to part ways with the Netherlands international and have used recent high-profile market moves as the primary benchmark for their valuation.

Tottenham are actively seeking attacking reinforcements to bolster their frontline ahead of the new campaign.

Gakpo, who can operate seamlessly on the left wing or as a central striker, has emerged as a primary target for Spurs under Roberto De Zerbi.

However, Liverpool’s uncompromising stance makes any potential deal complex and costly for the North London club.

The Anfield hierarchy believe the current market for proven, elite European attackers fully justifies their premium asking price.

Having watched former Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon complete a move to Barcelona in a deal worth up to €80 million, Liverpool view Gakpo in a similar bracket.

At 27, the Dutch international boasts a wealth of top-level experience in domestic and international football, making Liverpool unwilling to entertain discounted offers for a core squad asset.

Since arriving on Merseyside from PSV Eindhoven, Gakpo has recorded 50 goals and 20 assists in 180 matches across all competitions.

His ability to link play, press relentlessly from the front, and contribute directly to goals has made him an invaluable figure in recent seasons, but Andoni Iraola’s arrival could change that.

For Tottenham, the decision now rests on whether to meet Liverpool’s valuation or explore alternative targets. While Spurs admire Gakpo’s skillset and versatility, testing Liverpool’s resolve will require a substantial financial package.

With negotiations between the clubs yet to begin, Liverpool’s clear benchmark ensures that any move for the Dutch attacker will demand a significant bid.
