Anticipated deal

Liverpool set a condition to complete the deal

For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has made a public attempt to convince Cody Gakpo to remain at Anfield as Manchester City intensify their pursuit of the Dutch international. With the transfer deadline fast approaching, the defender has emphasized Gakpo's vital role in the squad despite the imminent arrival of big-money reinforcements.
