Cody Gakpo to play versatile role at Liverpool
Cody Gakpo is expected to take on a versatile role at Liverpool this season following the arrival of Bradley Barcola. While Barcola is expected to occupy the left-wing position, Gakpo’s ability to play centrally, on the left, or on the right offers manager Andoni Iraola significant tactical flexibility.
Despite interest from Manchester City and Tottenham during the summer transfer window, Gakpo has remained at Anfield. Analysts note that his multi-positional capabilities will be essential, particularly as the club has not signed a dedicated right-winger. Gakpo has already demonstrated his impact this season through goal contributions and is viewed as a valuable presence in the dressing room.
