Liverpool are reportedly eyeing a move for Newcastle United forward Anthony Gordon during the upcoming summer transfer window.
As per the *Daily Mail*, the Reds are ready to make another major investment following their big-money deal for Bayer Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz.
That transfer is expected to cost around £100 million — a club-record fee — and now Liverpool are willing to splash the cash again for Gordon.
Not Their First Attempt
The Merseyside club previously tried to sign Gordon last summer and still consider him a top target. Talks were held back then, and now they’re looking to revive their pursuit of the 24-year-old.
Convincing Gordon personally may not be a challenge, given he grew up as a Liverpool supporter. However, persuading Newcastle to part ways with one of their key players could prove more difficult.
Luis Díaz’s future at Liverpool remains uncertain amid growing interest from Barcelona, and the club is reportedly eyeing Anthony Gordon as a possible successor.
Although the Colombian winger is content at Anfield, strong interest from the La Liga giants could test Liverpool’s resolve. It remains to be seen whether the Reds will cash in on him in the coming weeks and move swiftly to secure Gordon as his replacement.
Gordon has already proven his quality in the Premier League and has shown he can perform at the highest level. If Liverpool manage to sign him, he would bring pace, creativity, and goals to the team — making him a valuable addition.
However, Newcastle’s qualification for next season’s Champions League means they’ll be reluctant to lose one of their key players.
It could take significant effort from Liverpool to persuade the Magpies to part ways with the 24-year-old star.
