Virgil van Dijk slams journalist for asking Arne Slot 'disrespectful' Xabi Alonso question as rumors swirl over Liverpool manager's future

Scores late goal off bench Gakpo scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Wednesday's 3-0 win over Marseille.

Impact Gakpo came on and finished the match in stoppage time, converting after Liverpool carried the ball into the box and Ryan Gravenberch supplied the final pass. His goal turned a comfortable night into a statement scoreline at the Velodrome. Beyond the finish, he helped Liverpool manage the final minutes through secure possession and smart positioning, while also creating one chance during his 11 minutes' shift. Gakpo's goal was his first after three games across all competitions without finding the back of the net. The forward will hope to score again against the Brentford on Saturday.

When will Mohamed Salah return? Liverpool make big decision ahead of Marseille Champions League trip after attacker's AFCON exploits

Plenty of volume in draw Gakpo generated six shots (four on goal), nine crosses (one accurate) and five corners in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Burnley.

Impact Gakpo produced plenty of volume throughout Saturday's draw, but none of it was especially threatening. The striker has been called upon to find another gear and has really struggled to fill the shoes of an injured Alexander Isak. Gakpo has been one of the most disappointing pieces of a hugely disappointing Liverpool side this season.

Nets for draw Gakpo scored one goal to go with five shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Fulham. In addition, he was given a yellow card in t...

Impact Gakpo got the start up top due to injuries to Liverpool's other strikers. He had a quiet match for the most part before netting a late goal that seemed set as the winner before a heart-breaking equalizer. Gakpo hasn't been at his best throughout the season and will have to compete for the starting job on the left wing even though he's healthy once more. If Liverpool can get their attack going in the back half of the season, Gakpo would have plenty of upside.

Returns Saturday Gakpo (strain) is on the bench for Saturday's game against Wolverhampton.

Impact Gakpo was seen with the Liverpool squad when the team arrived at Anfield, and the Dutchman will have a spot on the bench after missing the team's last three games due to a muscular problem. Gakpo should see steady minutes in the attacking line now that he's fit again, but he'll have to wait for his chance in this one.

Could return against Wolves Gakpo (strain) will be a late call for Saturday's clash against Wolves, coach Arne Slot said in the press conference, according to the Liverpool Echo. "Cody will be 50/50."

Impact Gakpo missed the last three games due to a muscular injury but could be back for Saturday's clash against Wolves since it will depend on his sensations after the final training session on Friday. Gakpo has been an undisputed starter for Liverpool this season and if he had to be fit for the game, he will play a decent role with Alexander Isak (ankle) sidelined for months.

Will return earlier than expected Gakpo (strain) underwent a scan that looked promising and could return earlier than expect, coach Arne Slot said in the press conference. "He [Gakpo] had a scan that looked promisi...

Impact Gakpo's first chance to return to the match squad will come against Leeds United on the first day of the year, although that is a positive news for the Reds since they expected him to miss more time due to his muscular injury. That said, the winger will still miss the next two fixtures at least, pushing coach Arne Slot to make changes in the starting XI, with Alexis Mac Allister likely playing upper on the pitch alongside Florian Wirtz until he returns to full fitness.

Impact Gakpo suffered an injury against Leeds United and is set for a spell out of the team. With Federico Chiesa (illness) out and Mohamed Salah out due to a dispute with Slot, Liverpool are severely lacking wingers. Youngster Rio Ngumoha seems set for a run in the first team, or Florian Wirtz could shift out wide.

DECEMBER 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Goal, assist in win Gakpo scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and three chances created in Sunday's 2-0 win against West Ham United.

Impact Gakpo played a major role as Liverpool finally got back to winning ways during Sunday's clash. The winger set up one goal and added a clinching goal in the second half. It's been a mixed season for Gakpo and Liverpool as a whole, but at his best he has plenty of threat as a scorer and playmaker.
