Liverpool could look to make a move for 23-year-old Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon before the summer transfer window closes.
According to a report by Sunday World, Liverpool are keen on signing 23-year-old Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon, and they are looking to make a fresh move to sign the England international.
Anthony Gordon has been linked with a move back to his boyhood club, and it remains to be seen how the situation develops. He has been a key figure for NewcastleUnited since joining the club, and they will not want to sanction his departure any time soon.
The Magpies have an ambitious project, and they will look to push for Champions League qualification and do well in the domestic trophies. They are already lacking in depth in the attacking unit and they will not want to lose a key player this summer.
Gordon and Alexander Isak carried the Newcastle United attack last season, and the Magpies simply cannot afford to lose either of them. On the other hand, Liverpool are determined to improve their attacking unit, and the 23-year-old will add goals and creativity from the wide areas.
The Englishman is versatile enough to operate on both flanks. Gordon scored 12 goals last season and picked up 11 assists along the way. He has the quality to compete at the highest level, and he could transform the Reds in the attack.
Anthony Gordon will be an expensive acquisition
Even if Newcastle United agree to sell the player, they are likely to demand a premium for him. It will be interesting to see if Liverpool are willing to break the bank for him. Gordon is only going to get better with coaching and experience.
He could develop into a top-class player for the club in the coming seasons. Mohamed Salah is in the final year of his contract with the club, and he will need to be replaced adequately. Gordon could be the ideal long-term alternative.
Meanwhile, Luis Diaz has been linked with a move away from Liverpool as well. It will be interesting to see if Liverpool sanction his departure in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, Gordon idolises the former Liverpool captain and club legend Steven Gerrard. The Reds will hope that his allegiance towards the club can tilt things in their favour as they look to negotiate a deal with Newcastle.
