Tottenham Hotspur have set their sights on Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo as they look to strengthen their attacking options this summer.
According to Football Insider, Spurs have identified the Dutch winger as an ambitious target as they continue to reshape their squad under fresh ambitions.
Tottenham have already enjoyed a productive start to the transfer window, securing the signatures of Andrew Robertson, Marcos Senesi, and Jan Paul van Hecke to bolster the defence.
Having addressed the backline, Spurs are now turning their attention further up the pitch, with flanks and central midfield both identified as areas requiring investment.
Tottenham are reportedly confident of signing Sandro Tonali from Newcastle United as part of their plans to upgrade the engine room ahead of next season.
On the wing, Football Insider report that Tottenham specifically want a Premier League-proven player, and Gakpo fits the profile they are looking for.
Liverpool were initially reluctant to sell Gakpo without first securing a replacement, but having recently signed Victor Munoz from Osasuna, they may now be open to a sale.
The 27-year-old has a contract at Anfield running until 2030, placing Liverpool in a strong negotiating position, with Transfermarkt valuing the forward at around £52 million.
Gakpo is a 6ft 4in right-footed left-winger who can also operate centrally when required, giving any buying club flexibility in how they deploy him.
The Dutchman delivered inconsistent form last season, scoring nine goals and registering six assists across 52 appearances in all competitions for Liverpool.
Tottenham currently have Mathys Tel and Wilson Odobert as left-wing options, though Odobert has been sidelined by a serious knee injury sustained during his time at Burnley.
Richarlison can provide cover in a wider role, but his long-term future at the club remains uncertain with his contract set to expire at the end of next season.
Tel is considered too young and raw to deliver consistent performances at the top level week in and week out at this stage of his development.
That uncertainty leaves Tottenham with a genuine need for an experienced, reliable presence on the left flank, making Gakpo a logical and compelling candidate.
Whether Spurs move beyond initial interest and launch a formal bid for the Liverpool man remains the key question as the transfer window progresses.
