Speculation has begun doing the rounds claiming Liverpool have been in talks over Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon.
The Daily Mail, for instance, said that the Reds are interested in the Magpies star, who is presently absent at Euro 2024.
However, it appears that Liverpool’s unwillingness to entertain moving defender Jarell Quansah the other way as part of a swap deal was the reason why the negotiations failed.
According to reports, Newcastle must complete transactions by June 30 in order to avoid breaking the profit and sustainability regulations (PSR) and perhaps losing points.
Fabrizio Romano has now provided an update on the situation involving Gordon, Liverpool, and Newcastle.
Fabrizio Romano says Anthony Gordon open to Liverpool move
Speaking on his YouTube channel, the transfer expert asserted that the Reds have thought about signing the 23-year-old.
Furthermore, Romano mentioned that he had heard that Gordon would be amenable to moving to Liverpool.
The Italian determined that this meant the clubs now had to reach a consensus.
According to Romano, “Liverpool really considered that possibility.” “They spoke with Newcastle regarding Anthony Gordon.
“The interest is undoubtedly real, even though there isn’t yet agreement on the player’s valuation or how much Newcastle would have to pay to trade him.
Additionally, from what I’ve heard, the player would be amenable to moving to Liverpool. Therefore, the clubs truly determine this.
Romano had already stated that Liverpool would only think about starting negotiations again if Newcastle lowered their demands for Gordon.
Developments could be on the cards on PSR ‘deadline day’
Due to PSR requirements, Sunday, June 30, has become something of a “deadline day,” as some teams try to sell players in order to comply with the rules.
Given his exceptional potential, Gordon wouldn’t have appeared near the top of the list of players Newcastle would be ready to move.
But between now and the weekend, there might be more changes on this front, so it’s definitely a matter of keep an eye out.
