Newcastle United may have to wait for the outcome of clear the air talks between Anthony Gordon and incoming Everton boss Sean Dyche.
The former Burnley boss is expected to be appointed as Everton manager today following talks in the last few days. Dyche was one of the front runners alongside Marcelo Bielsa but looks to have won the race for the job - and he will be tasked by the owners with a decision on Gordon, one way or another.
Despite Everton being resigned to losing Gordon, Dyche will still want a full examination of the circumstances and have his say on any potential departure. With no manager in place Gordon has missed two days of training without permission according to sources at Finch Farm but he was back to face the music today.
