Frank Lampard's Everton exit is unlikely to prevent the sale of Anthony Gordon - IF the price is right on the 21-year-old.
Regardless of the search for a new manager, transfer business is going on behind the scenes without a permanent boss in the hotseat. Paul Tait and Leighton Baines have been placed in caretaker charge at Goodison Park but won't have any say on transfers.
Lampard was sacked by the Toffees on Monday after a disastrous run of results that saw Everton plummet to the relegation zone of the Premier League. The ex-England star had previously put up a fight to keep Gordon and while Everton supremo Bill Kenwright does not want to sell the forward, there is an inevitability about the Kirkdale-born player's exit, either this month or in the summer.
