Liverpool latest: Cody Gakpo medical verdict emerges as Reds star’s transfer demand met

Liverpool are waiting on the full extent of an injury suffered by Cody Gakpo during international duty with the Netherlands. The forward was forced off following a heavy challenge from Serbia player Sasa Lukic, raising concerns about a potential syndesmosis or high ankle sprain according to injury analyst Physio Scout. The Reds will conduct scans to assess the full severity of the issue.

Gakpo remained at Liverpool despite summer interest from Manchester City and Tottenham, with teammate Virgil van Dijk publicly supporting his stay. Under manager Andoni Iraola, Gakpo has delivered two goals and four assists in six club appearances this season, with Liverpool next scheduled to play on October 11.
