Based on the information provided by Fabrizio Romano, it has been reported that Anthony Gordon has reached a decision to join Liverpool FC during the summer season. Anthony Gordon feels like staying in Newcastle to play as a winger will affect his career as he feels like he deserves to play in Champions League. In recent interview he said the move to Liverpool might be possible.😁😍
Liverpool is set to propose a player-plus-cash deal to acquire Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon. As reported by Teamtalk, the Reds are ready to offer £50 million alongside goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher to secure the English winger.
Under manager Arne Slot, Liverpool is preparing for a busy summer transfer window, aiming to make significant personnel changes. The club needs to bolster several areas, including their attack and defense.
Anthony Gordon has emerged as a key target for Liverpool. This interest is partly due to Newcastle’s necessity to sell players to adhere to the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules. The Magpies have already arranged for Yankuba Minteh to transfer to Brighton to generate funds and meet financial regulations. Gordon might be another player sold under this strategy, with Liverpool eager to bring him on board.
Currently representing England at the Euros, Gordon has impressed Gareth Southgate after a strong Premier League season, contributing to 21 goals, with 11 goals scored and 10 assists.
The report suggests that Gordon is open to joining Liverpool, despite their rivalry with his former club, Everton. Liverpool values Kelleher at around £25 million to £35 million. Consequently, a deal including Kelleher plus £50 million in cash would amount to approximately £75 million to £85 million.
While Eddie Howe is keen to retain the talented winger, Newcastle’s need for a new goalkeeper to compete with Nick Pope might be addressed by incorporating Kelleher into the deal. This potential move could benefit all parties, despite Newcastle’s reluctance to part with a player of Gordon’s caliber.
