Everton: Pundit shares ‘frightening’ Anthony Gordon claim after Sky update
Everton will not sell Anthony Gordon at any price this summer.
That’s according to former Leeds United stopper Paddy Kenny, speaking exclusively to Football Insider about the attacker’s future.
On Monday (27 June) Sky Sports reported Spurs’ interest in signing Gordon as well as Richarlison who has been heavily linked with a move this summer.
The 21-year-old burst onto the scene during the 2021-22 campaign, making 40 appearances in all competitions for the Blues.
He scored four goals and provided three assists as his boyhood club fought against relegation.
Kenny insists Everton need to build around Gordon, rather than selling him to another club.
“It’s alright losing a few players, you have to freshen things up,” Kenny told Football Insider correspondent Ben Wild.
“But he is homegrown and he’s from the area. The games he played last year, it’s frightening. For a 21-year-old it is key that they build around them.
“He has the potential to be an unbelievable player and it’s is key to keep players like that.
“With the takeover and everything happening there, you would hope it is big money they would ask for if an offer came in.
“I don’t see them selling him.”
As per The Telegraph (29 June,) the Kaminski family, who are bankrolling Peter Kenyon’s Everton takeover bid, want the deal done by 21 July.
This is because Maciek Kaminski is hoping to introduce himself to Frank Lampard as the club’s prospective new owner when Everton face Minnesota United in his hometown of Minneapolis next month.
