Liverpool is contemplating the potential sale of forward Cody Gakpo amid a squad overhaul under new head coach Andoni Iraola. Emile Heskey has suggested that if a suitable offer, around €60m, is made, the club might view this as an opportunity to fund further signings. Gakpo, who logged significant minutes and played a key role last season despite lukewarm goal scoring, remains a valuable asset. However, Iraola’s need for more wingers raises questions about the wisdom of such a sale at this time. The club's decision will take into account Gakpo's performances and Iraola's assessment once pre-season training begins.
