Frank Lampard has issued a hands off warning to Newcastle United and Tottenham insisting that Anthony Gordon would not be leaving Goodison Park this summer. The Magpies are among a number of sides linked with a move for the England youth international who was a bright spark for the Toffees in an otherwise disappointing campaign.
Chronicle Live reported earlier this week that the Toon were still in dialogue over a potential deal for Gordon, but it's claimed that Lampard said selling Gordon would be 'unacceptable' having already sold Richarlison this summer. The Toffees are hoping to avoid a repeat of last year, where they ensured Premier League survival on the penultimate game of the season.
Everton gave Gordon the number ten shirt earlier this week in an attempt to keep him on Merseyside. It's claimed the England international was excited by the prospect of playing in Europe after links to Tottenham Hotspur, but he was not actively trying to force a move away from Goodison.
