Liverpool transfer news: Fabrizio Romano reveals Liverpool 'double winger' plot amid Cody Gakpo talks

Liverpool are reportedly considering the possibility of signing two new wingers during the final two weeks of the transfer window.

The Merseyside heavyweights are looking to bolster their attacking options ahead of the upcoming Premier League campaign under Andoni Iraola.

However, this ambitious recruitment plan largely depends on the potential departure of Netherlands international Cody Gakpo to Tottenham Hotspur.

The two clubs are currently engaged in active negotiations regarding a permanent deal for the 27-year-old forward.

If a suitable transfer fee can be successfully agreed, the Reds will immediately accelerate their pursuit of wide reinforcements.

Barcola recently found himself left on the bench for the UEFA Super Cup and appears destined for a swift departure from the French capital.

Securing his signature would represent a massive statement of intent from the Premier League challengers.

While senior attackers continue to be heavily linked with potential moves, highly rated teenager Rio Ngumoha is fully expected to remain on Merseyside.

Liverpool clearly view the talented prodigy as a crucial part of their long-term project and want to oversee his immediate development.
