Tottenham Aims to Sign Cody Gakpo

Tottenham Hotspur has entered the race to sign Dutch winger Cody Gakpo from Liverpool during the current summer transfer window, amid reports suggesting the player's desire to leave Anfield following the departure of coach Arne Slot from the team.

Liverpool announced the appointment of Spaniard Andoni Iraola as the new head coach of the team, succeeding Slot, who was dismissed from his position after a disappointing season that ended without the club winning any titles, finishing only in fifth place in the English Premier League.

The "TEAMtalk" website reported that Gakpo wants to leave Liverpool this summer, noting that Tottenham has shown serious interest in signing him and is currently working on a plan to convince the player and the club to complete the deal. It also explained that the new coach Roberto De Zerbi's project at the London club is considered one of the main attractions for the player.

The report also indicated that Gakpo is attracting interest from several clubs in England, Spain, and Germany, which could intensify the competition to sign him during the current transfer window.
