Newcastle are already braced for bids to arrive early, with Gordon keen to resolve his future before England’s World Cup campaign gets underway.This is not the first time Gordon has had one eye on the exit. Gordon was offered to Liverpool directly, with reports at the time revealing he had even discussed the potential move with teammates.The deal never materialised but Gordon’s desire to make that move was genuine, and those feelings have not gone away.

According to the Telegraph, he was desperate to join Liverpool two years ago, and would “jump at the chance” to sign for Liverpool this summer.What has changed since then is the context around his form. Bayern Munich, Arsenal and Liverpool are all in the frame, though it is Bayern and Arsenal currently leading the chase.For Liverpool, Hugo Ekitike’s Achilles rupture has added urgency to their attacking recruitment, and Gordon’s ability to operate across the front three suddenly makes him a more pressing target than it may otherwise have been.Whether sentiment plays a role this summer remains to be seen – but the door Gordon wanted opened in 2024 appears to finally be ajar. anthony gordon
