Liverpool have been told it would take an offer of £75-80million to sign Anthony Gordon this summer amid renewed interest in his services.
Speaking on the latest edition of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, senior correspondent Pete O’Rourke revealed what sources have told him about the Reds’ efforts to sign the 24-year-old.
Newcastle remain determined to keep hold of their star man, and it would take a “huge” fee to persuade them to sell while the deal has been described as “difficult”.
This comes after Football Insider exclusively revealed on 22 May that Gordon is still on Arne Slot’s radar as Liverpool are prepared to reignite their interest.
Meanwhile, former Man United chief scout Mick Brown told Football Insider that Newcastle could accept offers for Gordon to boost their finances.
However, sources say the Magpies’ qualification for the Champions League has strengthened their PSR situation and they will be under no pressure to sell their key players.
Liverpool plot new move to sign Anthony Gordon
Gordon came very close to joining Liverpool last summer when Newcastle were forced to consider selling to improve their financial situation.
More recently, Luis Diaz has been linked with a move away from Anfield, and there is a growing belief that the England international is the top target to replace him if he is sold.
O’Rourke explained that the Reds have kept a close eye on the winger’s performances this season and could make a move if the opportunity arrives.
