Anthony Gordon has branded the numbers involved in Chelsea's summer pursuit of him as 'crazy' while admitting it was never his intention to force a move away from Everton.
The 21-year-old was targeted by the Londoners during the summer transfer window, who saw two bids rejected for the youngster and were reportedly willing to offer as much as £60million to secure the services of the Everton academy graduate.
This interest arrived on the back of a breakthrough season for Gordon, who was a standout figure in an otherwise dismal season for the Toffees. He made a total of 40 first-team appearances during the 2021/22 campaign, developing into a key player in attack.
