Liverpool Renew Interest in Newcastle Star Anthony Gordon as Díaz Uncertainty Grows
Liverpool are reportedly targeting Newcastle United forward Anthony Gordon in the upcoming summer transfer window, following their record-breaking move for Bayer Leverkusen’s Florian Wirtz.
According to the Daily Mail, the Reds are prepared to make another major investment, with Gordon emerging as a serious option. The pursuit of the 24-year-old isn’t new — Liverpool had already attempted to sign him last summer and still view him as a top priority.
A Potential Homecoming
Gordon, a lifelong Liverpool fan, may be open to a move to Anfield. However, convincing Newcastle to sell one of their standout performers could prove far more challenging — especially with the Magpies securing Champions League football next season.
Luis Díaz Replacement?
With Luis Díaz attracting significant interest from Barcelona, Liverpool may be preparing for a potential departure. While the Colombian remains content at Anfield, the growing attention from La Liga could force the club to consider a sale. In that case, Gordon is reportedly seen as a prime candidate to fill the void.
Gordon has already shown he can compete at the highest level in the Premier League, offering pace, creativity, and goal-scoring ability — qualities that would fit Liverpool’s attacking setup well.
Still, any deal would likely require a substantial offer to tempt Newcastle into parting with one of their key players. Liverpool may have the player’s admiration — but not yet his club’s consent.
