Newcastle hold Gordon talks
Newcastle have held talks over a move for Everton forward Anthony Gordon.Newcastle are looking to replace Chris Wood, who left for Nottingham Forest last week.
Although not a like-for-like replacement, Newcastle see the 21-year-old as a player who can operate in a number of positions across the front line.
Newcastle were rebuffed with an inquiry for Gordon in the summer, but have retained an interest. It is thought a bid of around £40m could tempt Everton to sell.
Complicating the move somewhat is Everton's managerial situation - Frank Lampsrd was sacked yesterday and any new incumbent may want to keep Gordon.
