Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur are now facing competition from Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United for Everton winger Anthony Gordon, according to 90min.
90min are reporting this morning that Everton winger Gordon is of ‘significant interest’ to Newcastle.
The Magpies are also reportedly looking at Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi.
Newcastle’s interest in Gordon will come as a blow for Tottenham, who have been linked with the 21-year-old English winger as well.
The London Evening Standard reported this week that Tottenham want to sign the Everton winger, but the North London club have ‘little optimism’ that they will be able to convince the Toffees to sell the homegrown player.
Could Newcastle or Tottenham sign Anthony Gordon from Everton?
In our opinion, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are unlikely to be able to sign Anthony Gordon from Everton in the summer transfer window.
We do not think that the Toffees will sell one of their most promising young players this summer.
Especially after they sold Richarlison to Tottenham last week.
Now, of course, we know that money talks in football, but we do not think that Newcastle or Tottenham will be paying over the top to sign Gordon in the summer transfer window.
Gordon made 25 starts and 10 substitute appearances in the Premier League for Everton last season.
The winger scored four goals and have two assists in those games.
