Van Dijk Wants Liverpool to Keep Gakpo Amid Manchester City Interest

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk says he wants Cody Gakpo to remain at Anfield as speculation links the Dutch forward with a move to Manchester City. After Liverpool’s 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest, Van Dijk described Gakpo as an important player and a close friend. He said Liverpool should retain quality players as the club prepares for the final days of the transfer window. Gakpo has reportedly attracted interest in a deal worth about £85 million. The 27-year-old has started the season strongly, with a goal and an assist, while Liverpool are also being linked with Paris Saint-Germain winger Bradley Barcola.
