Cody Gakpo: Liverpool in advanced talks to sign forward from PSV Eindhoven

Liverpool are in advanced talks to sign Dutch forward Cody Gakpo from PSV Eindhoven.

The 23-year-old had an impressive World Cup in Qatar, scoring three goals as he helped the Netherlands reach the quarter-finals.

Liverpool have made a move for Gakpo with forwards Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota facing lengthy spells on the sidelines.

The fee for the winger is expected to be between 40-50m euros (£35.4m-£44.3m).

Liverpool and Netherlands defender Virgil van Dijk spoke glowingly about his club and international team-mate during the 2022 World Cup.

"Hopefully Cody can go to the moon and back," said Van Dijk during the tournament in Qatar.
