Michael Owen has urged Liverpool to sell Cody Gakpo this summer after he underperformed massively in the 2025/26 season, after which Arne Slot was sacked. Fabrizio Romano reported on Wednesday that “Tottenham are in direct talks with Cody Gakpo’s camp over a possible move this summer.” Michael Owen tips Liverpool to sell Cody Gakpo after “consistently poor” season Owen believes that Liverpool should sell Gakpo this summer if they sign a left winger like Bradley Barcola to replace him.

“Gakpo has already proven that he can be very effective in the Liverpool team, but it was a concern, his performances last season. I just think Liverpool are probably… if they lose him, they’re already desperate for wide men.

That’s an up in the air one.” I don’t mind if Liverpool sell Gakpo, but I am interested to see if Andoni Iraola can get the best out of him I may be alone in this, but I do think Cody Gakpo will improve under Andoni Iraola. That said, he is a brilliant player to have in reserve, with the complaint last season being that Gakpo is not good enough to be the starting left winger at Liverpool.
