Anthony Gordon’s name has dominated Liverpool transfer rumours in recent days, and one prominent journalist believes that the Reds could get their man before the market closes in four weeks’ time.
Speaking on ESPN FC, Mark Ogden stated that there’s a ‘desire’ among LFC fans for business to be done before the 30 August deadline, and he thinks that the Newcastle and ex-Everton winger could be back on Merseyside by that date.
In a six-word claim which could send Kopites into a frenzy, he stated: “I think that deal might happen”.

Although it was the Magpies who initially approached Liverpool about Gordon in June when they were at real risk of falling on the wrong side of PSR rules (Daily Mail), it’s become clear in recent weeks that the Reds have a strong interest in the forward and would love to have him at Anfield.
We’ve had to be very patient for incoming transfer activity at Anfield this summer, but a big-money swoop for the 23-year-old could potentially change the narrative of the summer window drastically!

Mark Ogden. Who’s he? Scouse journalists are living in a dream world if they think they’re getting Gordon. Cough up ¢100M and we’ll think about it.
Bidding can start at never and end when Liverpool can’t afford it.
Gordon will be a squad player for Liverpool FC
I think Anthony Gordon will be the best siging this summer and as being the fun of liverpool not happy for slot being very slow in the market
