PSV Eindhoven desperately needed a major player sale when Liverpool came calling for Cody Gakpo, according to reports.
The Reds announced on Wednesday evening that a deal had been done with the Eredivisie club to bring their 23-year-old forward to Anfield on a five-and-a-half-year deal when the January transfer window opens in a few days time.
Although the official fee was undisclosed, the ECHO understands that Gakpo will cost Liverpool around £40million - a relative bargain for a Holland international who starred at the World Cup in Qatar.
