Liverpool has firmly closed the door on any potential departure for one of their key attacking stars.

Details: According to renowned insider Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool has taken a definitive decision to keep Cody Gakpo at the club this summer. The Reds' hierarchy decided against a sale primarily due to the inability to secure a suitable high-caliber replacement before the transfer deadline.

Manchester City submitted a massive £85 million bid in an attempt to lure the versatile Netherlands international to the Etihad Stadium. However, Liverpool swiftly rejected the lucrative proposal after Gakpo personally agreed to stay and expressed his complete readiness to continue performing at Anfield.

Following the breakdown of negotiations for Gakpo, Manchester City has promptly shifted focus to alternative targets in the final phase of the market, identifying Iliman Ndiaye and Enzo Fernández as their main options to bolster the squad.

It is worth noting that according to Transfermarkt, the 27-year-old Dutch forward's market value is currently estimated at €70 million.
