Two goal contributions in friendly
Gakpo scored and assisted in Sunday's friendly match against Como as Liverpool closed their preparation for the season opener versus Newcastle.
Analysis: Gakpo has made a positive impact in the latest practice games after returning to work with his club following his World Cup participation for the Netherlands. During the summer competition, he tallied three goals and one assist over four matches played, and the strong offseason run strengthened his position as one of Liverpool's most appealing forwards. His versatility and his involvement in chance creation in the final third make him a complete contributor who could feature either on the left wing or in the middle zone, potentially racking up offensive stats if the team finds consistency at the start of the season.
Ready for new season
Gakpo is back with Liverpool for preseason at the AXA Training Centre, according to the club.
Analysis: Gakpo finished the World Cup with three goals on six shots and one assist on three chances created, closing the gap to just one goal shy of tying the all time Dutch World Cup scoring record with his six. His return to Liverpool training now shifts focus to preseason preparations as he looks to carry that scoring form into the new 2026/27 Premier League season under new coach Andoni Iraola.
