Liverpool are reportedly keen on signing 23-year-old English winger Anthony Gordon from Newcastle United.
According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, Liverpool are looking to sign Anthony Gordon as a replacement for Luis Diaz. The Colombian international has been linked with the move away from the club in recent months, and his performances have not been hit and miss.
Diaz has been linked with clubs like Barcelona, and it remains to be seen where he ends up. On the other hand, Gordon has been quite impressive in the Premier League, and he has 15 goal contributions in all competitions.
Anthony Gordon has proven himself in the Premier League with Newcastle United and Everton. There is no doubt that he has the quality to succeed at Liverpool as well. The Englishman is a boyhood Liverpool fan. So, convincing him to join the club is unlikely to be difficult. However, Liverpool will need to agree on a deal with Newcastle United.
The Tyneside outfit are one of the wealthiest clubs in the world, and they do not need to sell their key players. Liverpool might have to submit a tempting proposal to convince Newcastle United to sell the English international.
Gordon is capable of operating on both flanks, and he will add goals and creativity to the side. The Englishman is still quite young, and he will only improve with coaching and experience. He could develop into a top-class player with the right guidance.
Gordon could fancy Liverpool move
The opportunity to join Liverpool will be quite exciting for Anthony Gordon. The Reds are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and they could provide him with the platform to fight for trophies. Newcastle United have shown tremendous improvement in recent seasons, but they are not quite at the level required to challenge for the Premier League title or the Champions League trophy.
Liverpool would be an attractive destination for the player if they come forward with an official proposal to sign him. Liverpool are pushing for the Premier League title and the Champions League. It will be interesting to see if they can win major trophies this season. It will certainly help them attract top-quality players.
The Merseyside outfit will also hope that Newcastle United miss out on a top-four finish which would make it easy for them to lure the Magpies’ top players away from the club. It remains to be seen how the situation unfolds.
