Jamie Carragher has claimed that ‘there’s no way’ Everton can accept Chelsea’s bid for Anthony Gordon.
Thomas Tuchel’s side reportedly tabled a £40million offer for the Toffees winger on Sunday afternoon as they continue to revamp their squad under new owner Todd Boehly. Chelsea’s bid will test the resolve of those in charge at Goodison Park, having lost Richarlison earlier this summer and without Dominic Calvert-Lewin for the foreseeable future due to injury.
Despite Everton’s insistence during this window that Gordon is not for sale, the situation regarding Chelsea’s interest has developed swiftly. And when the report was reiterated following Chelsea’s 2-2 draw with Tottenham Hotspur on Sky Sports, former Liverpool defender Carragher said ‘there’s no way’ the club can lose another of their main attacking threats and boyhood Evertonian.
