Frank Lampard has sent a fresh warning to Chelsea in their pursuit of Everton star Anthony Gordon, claiming the 21-year-old could become a £100million player.
The Blues legend denied reports that a £60million bid had been submitted by Thomas Tuchel's side for Gordon and reiterated the fact he is an Everton player. Chelsea are currently focusing on securing deals for the talented winger and Leicester starlet Wesley Fofana, deals that could reach a combined fee in the region of £150million.
Lampard compared Gordon to players such as Mason Mount who he coached during his time at Stamford Bridge and with Derby County, claiming the 21-year-old is 'in that bracket'. With under a week to go in the transfer window, Todd Boehly is looking at securing further signings to improve Tuchel's squad after an indifferent start to the 2022/23 campaign.
