Liverpool manager Arne Slot applauds the fans after the Arsenal game
Ever since his blockbuster switch to Newcastle United, the electric winger Anthony Gordon has repeatedly been linked with a move to Anfield.
According to a prominent inside source on X, Gordon has definitively told his representatives to “make the move happen” to Liverpool.
Despite famously breaking through on the blue side of Stanley Park with Everton, the 25-year-old is a lifelong, passionate Liverpool fan, and the prospect of finally returning to his boyhood club appears to be an opportunity he is absolutely desperate to take.
The Newcastle United star is receiving interest not only from Liverpool but also from Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side.
Liverpool move attracts Newcastle’s Anthony Gordon
It’s not hard to see why Gordon is actively pushing for the St James’ Park exit door.
Despite enjoying a spectacular individual campaign for Newcastle, racking up 17 goals across all competitions, including an incredible 10 strikes during their Champions League run, the Magpies have struggled with domestic consistency and look incredibly likely to miss out on European football next season.
For a player entering the absolute prime of his career, competing for major honours on the biggest stage is the target.
Liverpool are actively hunting for elite attacking reinforcements. Following the devastating, season-ending Achilles injury suffered by forward Hugo Ekitike and the impending departure of Mohamed Salah at the end of the season, the Reds are desperate for explosive, reliable options on the flank.
