Liverpool are very interested in signing Anthony Gordon from Newcastle United, and it remains to be seen whether they can get the deal done.Gordon is likely to cost a lot of money. He has been a key player for Newcastle with 22 goal contributions this season. Newcastle will not want to lose him easily, and he could cost around £80 million, according to reports from Spain.Mohamed Salah has announced that he will leave the club at the end of the season, and Liverpool needs more quality on the flanks. They need someone who can score goals consistently and help create opportunities in the final third. Gordon is versatile enough to operate on either flank, and he can slot in as the centre forward as well.He has shown his quality consistently with Everton and Newcastle. This could be the right time for him to take the next step and join a bigger club. Liverpool will be able to provide him with European football and the opportunity to fight for trophies. In addition to that, Gordon is a lifelong Liverpool fan, and the opportunity to join them will be hard to turn down for the attacker. He is entering the peak years of his career, and he will want to compete at the highest level.The asking price is quite high, and Liverpool needs to improve multiple areas of the squad. It remains to be seen whether they can convince Newcastle to lower their demands in the summer.This has been a difficult season for Liverpool, and they need to plug the gaps in their squad if they want to bounce back strongly next year. Investing most of their budget in an attacker will not be a wise decision.The post Boyhood fan could seal dream £80m Anfield switch as Liverpool plot move appeared first on CaughtOffside.
