Newcastle United have previous when it comes to refusing to take no for an answer in the transfer market. The Magpies, who are still to sign any players this month, look set to repeat that tactic once again in the final days of the January window.
Newcastle are actively trying to get a deal over the line for Anthony Gordon in the coming days, with Chronicle Live understanding the player is keen on a move to St James' Park. The player was also of interest back in the summer as Everton refused to budge on their inflated valuation of the 21-year-old.
Gordon missed Everton training on three separate occasions this week but returned to the club's Finch Farm base on Friday in the latest twist in this ongoing saga. Gordon is still expected to depart before the end of January despite his training U-turn.
