Vincent Kompany’s Bayern Munich are looking to raid Liverpool for the services of their versatile attacker Cody Gakpo.
Bayern Munich have already started planning for the next summer transfer window. The Bundesliga giants will be looking to bolster their attack and according to a report from Fichajes, they are plotting a raid on Liverpool for Cody Gakpo.
The Dutch international made a name for himself while playing for PSV Eindhoven before securing a move to the Merseyside club at the start of 2023. He has only gone from strength to strength since joining the Reds.
Cody Gakpo’s ability to feature anywhere in attack has made him an integral part of their first team setup. The Dutchman has been one of the go-to men for Arne Slot in the ongoing season, and he has repaid the faith with 10 goals and four assists in his 26 appearances.
Bayern Munich to push for Gakpo’s signature
While Cody Gakpo’s contract at Anfield runs until the summer of 2028 and they consider him a key part of their plans moving ahead, the 25-year-old could be living his final months at Liverpool amidst interest from Bayern Munich.
The Bundesliga giants are looking to reshape their attack ahead of next season. With Thomas Muller in the final phase of his career, the Bundesliga giants want to bring in a versatile star who can help replace him in the long run.
Cody Gakpo is considered to be an ideal fit for Bayern Munich’s system and the type of football that is played in Germany. He is a young proven star with international experience, and Die Roten are ready to bet big on him. The Dutchman’s ability to feature in multiple positions, score as well as create is what attracts their interest.
While Bayern Munich are ready to push hard for his signature, they won’t find it easy to strike a deal. They will have to fork out in excess of €80 million to sign the Dutch forward. The Reds could agree to a potential transfer as it will give them enough funds to reinvest in their squad.
