Liverpool came close to signing Anthony Gordon last summer when Newcastle were pressured by PSR rules. That deal fell through—but the interest never cooled as reported by TheHardTackle.com.
Now, as Luis Diaz’s future hangs in the balance—Bayern Munich weighing a £70 m offer as per talkSPORT reports, and Barcelona sniffing around—Liverpool plan a summer return for Gordon.
He’s English. He’s fast. He’s versatile—with explosive goal contributions.
At Newcastle, Gordon delivered double-digit combined goals and assists in back‑to‑back seasons and powered England’s run to the Euro U21 final.
Liverpool aren’t bluffing. They’ve kept contact with his camp since the previous window—tracking every rise, every moment.
Newcastle won’t budge cheaply. The asking price is hefty—up to £75‑80 million, maybe more.
Champions League qualification and a fresh long‑term contract make them no longer desperate sellers.
Slot plans strategically. He’s refreshed the squad with Frimpong, Milos Kerkez, and British-record signing Florian Wirtz.
Still, one slot remains vulnerable if Diaz leaves. Gordon is the perfect blend of youth and instant impact.
For Gordon, a return to Merseyside carries weight. Grew up a Red. Feels like destiny. Yet he won’t force departure—Newcastle’s stance remains firm.
Liverpool could move fast. If Diaz exits, Gordon becomes not just a target—but a catalyst. The club chase isn’t just tactical—it’s emotional. A boyhood dream. A transfer bid shadowed by purpose.
Between now and summer, the question looms: will Gordon’s dream become Liverpool’s reality?
