Jose Enrique has said on Instagram that he is confused by how Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool managed to do a deal with PSV for Cody Gakpo.
The pundit has said that he is shocked that Liverpool were able to sign Gakpo for £37 million from Dutch giants PSV.
According to The Guardian, Liverpool have paid an initial £37 million in transfer fees for the Netherlands international forward.
Manchester United reportedly wanted to sign the 23-year-old, who starred at the 2022 Qatar World Cup, but it was Liverpool who got the deal over the line.
Jose Enrique on Liverpool’s Cody Gakpo deal
Good signing for Liverpool
In our opinion, Cody Gakpo is one of the best young players around, and Liverpool have done a great piece of business signing the 23-year-old in the middle of the season.
Luis Diaz joined Liverpool in January 2022, and the winger hit the ground running.
Liverpool will hope that Gakpo does something similar.
Even if the youngster does not do so, there is no pressure on him.
After all, Liverpool do have a strong attacking unit, which will get even better once the likes of Diaz and Diogo Jota get fully fit.
