Gakpo joined Liverpool from PSV in January 2023 and has since scored 55 goals in 159 appearances for the team. He feels at home in Liverpool and is enjoying his time with the team.
Gakpo's contract extension was not a difficult decision for him, as he is happy to be part of a team with many top players. He believes that this makes football even more enjoyable.
Last season, Gakpo won his first Premier League title with Liverpool. He is now aiming to win even more titles with the team.
Gakpo and his team want to build on their success and move forward. They are still hurting from their elimination from the Champions League, but they are determined to do better.
Gakpo had a strong start to the new Premier League season, helping Liverpool win three intense games. He recalled that the games were very physically demanding and required a high level of intensity.
Gakpo believes that teams are focusing more on counterattacks and less on beautiful football. He thinks that this makes the game more like chess, where teams have to make strategic decisions to win.
