Joe Gomez is considering his Liverpool future after he was reportedly offered to Newcastle as part of a swap deal for Anthony Gordon, sources have told Football Insider.
The Telegraph claim Liverpool indicated during discussions they would accept £45m for Gomez, 27, meaning Gordon could effectively have moved to Anfield for £30m plus Gomez, meeting Newcastle’s £75m valuation.
However, the deal involving Gomez and Gordon fell through as Newcastle were able to meet their profit and sustainability requirements through other player sales.
Liverpool are nonetheless still monitoring the England winger’s situation and are still keen on pursuing a deal in the final month of the window.
Sources have told Football Insider that Liverpool would also still be willing to sell Gomez at the right price heading into the next four weeks.

Ex-Charlton Athletic wonderkid Gomez moved to Merseyside in 2015 and has gone on to make 224 appearances for the club without scoring a single goal.
Able to play anywhere across the back line, Gomez’s versatility has been a real asset for the Merseysiders and he thrived during an extended spell at left-back last season.
