Liverpool remain determined in their pursuit of Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon. The England international has been linked to a move to Anfield throughout the summer, and Liverpool shows no sign of abandoning their interest in the former Everton player. Newcastle had initially looked to sell Gordon due to Profit and Sustainability issues, offering him to Liverpool. However, after resolving their financial problems by selling Yankuba Minteh and Elliot Anderson, Newcastle chose to retain Gordon.
Liverpool is still keen on acquiring him and, according to Football Insider, is prepared to sell Luis Diaz for £50m to facilitate Gordon’s arrival. While Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain had shown interest in Diaz, both clubs have shifted focus to other targets. Liverpool is also pursuing Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi but is especially interested in Gordon as he matches the profile of a left-side attacker that Arne Slot is seeking.
As the transfer window nears its end, Liverpool remains proactive in their efforts to sign Gordon. With only a few weeks left, they need to act quickly to secure a deal. Liverpool is currently the only team in Europe’s top five leagues that has not made a new signing this summer. Although Diaz has been a valuable player for Liverpool, they are looking for a younger alternative, with Gordon identified as a potential replacement.
