Transfer insider outlines Andoni Iraola’s plan for Cody Gakpo after Bradley Barcola arrival

Comments

1. Freya: figured barcola would be a stopgap till they decided what to do with gakpo, but now i'm really curious if iraola has something up his sleeve
2. Larsenadam: love how they're already spinning this as a 'win' just because Gakpo stayed
3. Aria: think LFC is learning from past mistakes - didn't want to sell Gakpo too early now that they have Barcola on board
4. Sana: can't believe the turn of events, was totally expecting a Gakpo departure last week
5. Lundleo: this doesn't change the fact that gakpo was offered a new contract before barcola's arrival
6. Luna: so the transfer drama was just a decoy for Barcola to get fit in time
7. Neon Jackal: thought gakpo was done for sure, barcola doesn't seem to be doing much better in this game tho
8. Hollow Nova: seemed a little far-fetched to think gakpo would actually end up staying at anfield after that barcola news dropped
9. Freyas: thought barcola was the guy they were counting on, but i guess you never really know how these situations play out
10. Glitch Lynx: saw this play out from afar, not surprised by Iraola's approach
11. Elias: gutted to see bradley's signing overshadowing cody's potential departure – that must be tough for gakpo to handle
12. Aidenh: not sure why we're still buying so many players at once, can't get through to Gakpo in media though
13. Fractal Ronin: Gonna be a tough sell to try and keep Gakpo happy now - what's the plan for rotation? 🚨
14. Azizemma: barcelona was supposed to be his ticket out
15. Static Nova: i was so ready to rag on gakpo getting sold but this barcala thing threw me off guard
16. Mayae: Gladly getting some clarity on Gakpo's future after the transfer drama, but Iraola needs to win us over now, not weeks later. What's in it
17. Novasato: seemed like cody's ship had sailed but i guess not
18. Ravi: seemed more like a PR statement than actual news about Gakpo's future
