"Liverpool look like the early frontrunners for Gordon, one source said. He grew up there, and his family are Liverpool fans despite him previously being at Everton. Liverpool's interest is strong, they've admired him for some time and there may already have been some informal contacts to assess the possibility of a move, another source told me. The problem is Newcastle will do everything they can to make life difficult for Liverpool again as they did with Alexander Isak."
"Gordon has impressed again for Newcastle this season, weighing in with ten goals and four assists in 34 appearances in all competitions. The 24-year-old is surely still yet to hit his peak, and it's all too easy to imagine what kind of impact he could have with better players around him. Could Anthony Gordon strengthen Liverpool? Gordon looks like he could be ready to make the step up to a higher level, and one imagines LFC might view him as an upgrade on Cody Gakpo."
Liverpool have emerged as the leading suitors for Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon, with Arsenal and Manchester City also potential contenders. Gordon has recorded ten goals and four assists in 34 appearances this season and is viewed as still developing with scope to improve alongside higher-quality teammates. Informal contacts may have occurred between Liverpool and Newcastle, but Newcastle are expected to resist easy sales and could demand between £85m and £95m. Gordon grew up in Liverpool and has family ties to the city, and Liverpool might see him as a potential upgrade on Cody Gakpo.
