Premier League giants Liverpool are reportedly considering a surprising move for a former Everton player in the upcoming summer transfer window.

Anthony Gordon Transfer: Liverpool To Target Gordon as Mo Salah’s Replacement

The club is currently undergoing a managerial transition with Jurgen Klopp set to depart and they are said to be eyeing reinforcements as they gear up for a period of change.

Amidst speculation of Feyenoord’s Arne Slot taking over the managerial reins at Anfield and with key players like Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah’s futures hanging in the balance, Liverpool are expected to undergo significant squad restructuring in the coming months.

Reports suggest that Liverpool could generate substantial funds potentially over £100 million by offloading star attacker Mohamed Salah.

With this windfall, the club is rumoured to be considering a surprising replacement: Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon, a former Everton academy product.

Gordon, who departed Liverpool’s academy at age 11 before finding success at Everton and subsequently Newcastle United, has reportedly caught the eye of Liverpool’s recruitment team.

Gordon This Season

The 23-year-old’s impressive performances, contributing 10 goals and 10 assists in the Premier League during the 2023-24 season, have put him on Liverpool’s radar.

Despite Newcastle United’s reluctance to part ways with Gordon, citing financial and regulatory considerations, Liverpool’s interest remains strong. However, any potential deal would hinge on meeting Newcastle’s steep asking price, rumoured to be around £100 million.

As the summer transfer window approaches, Liverpool’s pursuit of Anthony Gordon could add an intriguing subplot to their offseason dealings, amidst the backdrop of managerial change and key player contract negotiations.
