Liverpool fans thrilled by Anthony Gordon update as he says 'yes' to move

Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon has revealed which ex-Premier League player is his hero and it has Liverpool fans talking.

Liverpool have been working on a deal to bring the 23-year-old to Anfield but talks at the end of June collapsed after Newcastle found other avenues to help with their PSR situation.

The deal being discussed between the Merseyside giants and the north-east involved a cash-plus-player exchange but an agreement could not be secured.

Football Insider revealed earlier this month that Liverpool still hold an interest in Gordon. Providing an update on the situation, transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano said, as per DaveOCKOP:

“Internally Liverpool are discussing the situation of Anthony Gordon in case they do something in offensive positions. Gordon gave green light to the move in June.”

Liverpool still interested in Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon

The Premier League giants are the only club remaining in Europe’s top five leagues who haven’t made a new signing this transfer window.

With Klopp no longer at the club, it’s going to be a period of transition at Liverpool under new manager Arne Slot and fans are starting to get restless about the lack of business.

Many are calling for current owners FSG to sell the club if they’re unwilling to invest so signing a player like Gordon will likely ease the pressure.

The 23-year-old was asked by Fubo: “Who was your idol growing up?” He replied: “Steven Gerrard”.

Gordon was then asked to name the best player he had played against.

He said: “I’d say directly against I would like (Achraf) Hakimi for Paris Saint Germain, he was definitely the best right-back.

“But, on the pitch, I’ll probably say Mo Salah.”

However, when the ex-Everton man was asked who was better between Gerrard and Frank Lampard he said Lampard.

Anthony Gordon has looked like a proper Liverpool player tonight. Left sitting on the bench by an inept England manager when he’s comfortably the best option in his position to come on.— Dan (@Dan23_92) June 30, 2024

As a lifelong Liverpool fan, I'm thrilled by the idea of Anthony Gordon joining the team. He's young, dynamic, and has shown significant promise at Everton and Newcastle. His pace, dribbling skills, and attacking mindset could add a new dimension to our forward line. (1/2)#lfc pic.twitter.com/VP3yM2s6Sw— an100n (@an100nlfc) July 26, 2024

Anthony Gordon became the second player in Premier League history to score against all of the 'Big Six' in a single season. Big game player???????? Sign Him Up @LFC #LFC #Gordon pic.twitter.com/gPvOxLB1aq— Sajad (@SajadIqbalLFC) June 28, 2024

Anthony Gordon was Newcastle United’s player of the year last year ahead of Alexander Isak. Would be a brilliant if we signed him, desperate to play for us and a boyhood red. This deal gets done before the window ends IMO.#LFC #Gordon pic.twitter.com/7oGGLCzflW— Sajad (@SajadIqbalLFC) July 26, 2024

As @AnythingLFC_ reported earlier: "Liverpool’s interest in Anthony Gordon remains strong. Gordon is a player #LFC really rate internally." [via @FabrizioRomano] ????

His attacking visual is so incredible, he could certainly shine under Slot! ????

I adore Joe Gomez. But Richard Hughes negotiating a deal with Newcastle to get Anthony Gordon for £30m + Gomez is a huge demonstration of the caliber of sporting director Liverpool now has. That's some sharp negotiation skills.— Maxi (@MaaxiAngelo) July 31, 2024
