Cody Gakpo
27-Year-Old
Liverpool
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Gakpo has steadily improved during his time with Liverpool with 2024/25 being his best en route to 10 goals and four assists. He finished the season as the top choice on the left wing which is where he started, but whether through injury or rotation, he wasn't a lock in every starting XI. Gakpo's biggest step forward in his third season were his chances created (38), likely due to the role on the wing. Gakpo should hold onto the left wing once again, but depending on how the squad shakes out, the biggest question will be minutes. If he can surpass 2,000 minutes and 25 starts, he could near 20 goal contributions and become one of the better fantasy options in the league.
Brilliant in rout
Gakpo scored two goals and assisted once from five shots and one chance created in Saturday's 5-1 victory versus Sweden.
ANALYSIS
Gakpo was incredible throughout Saturday's win, scoring twice and adding an assist. The winger was at his absolute best in the total domination of Sweden. The winger is in red-hot form and is poised to build off this as Netherlands progress further in the World Cup. Gakpo seems to be back in form after a disappointing club campaign.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be used in potential transfer
Gakpo could be used in the deal that would send Yan Diomande to Liverpool in the summer, according to TEAMTalk.
ANALYSIS
Gakpo had a subpar season in 2025/26, and it wouldn't be surprising if he were to leave Liverpool in the summer. The Reds are keen on signing Diomande, who plays for RB Leipzig and will feature for Ivory Coast in the summer World Cup, and since they also have Rio Ngumoha on the roster, they could offer Gakpo to Leipzig as part of the deal that would send the Ivorian star to Anfield.
