Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher believes that Anthony Gordon of Newcastle United would bring significant value to Liverpool FC. Gordon, a 23-year-old winger who represented England at Euro 2024, stood out with 12 goals and 11 assists in 48 appearances for Newcastle across all competitions.
His contributions, particularly in the Premier League with 11 goals and 10 assists in 35 games, highlight his prowess. Gordon is contracted with Newcastle until 2026 and holds a market value of €60 million.
Discussing Gordon’s impact, former player Dietmar Hamann, speaking on Top Offshore Casinos via FOOTBALLWAVE, praised his Premier League performances. Hamann acknowledged Gordon’s growth at Newcastle after a challenging start, citing his potential to be a significant signing for Liverpool, Gordon’s boyhood club. Hamann noted Liverpool’s potential need to offload players, depending on Mohamed Salah’s future, highlighting Gordon’s speed and ability to influence games positively.
Anthony Gordon saw limited action during Euro 2024, featuring for just a minute in England’s goalless draw with Slovenia in the group stage.
Liverpool’s 2023-24 season under Jurgen Klopp was marked by a strong start with aspirations of a quadruple, but they ended up with one trophy. They clinched the EFL Cup with a 1-0 victory over Chelsea in extra time.
However, their campaigns in the UEFA Europa League and FA Cup were cut short in the quarter-finals by Atalanta and Manchester United, respectively. Despite leading the Premier League early on, Liverpool ultimately finished behind Manchester City and Liverpool in what turned out to be Klopp’s final season at the helm.
