Anthony Gordon is always the last player to leave fan events and that was true again on Tuesday.
As the sun set on the Olympic Village he signed and posed for pictures with supporters, then signed and posed again and again as the Everton staff packed up around him. He was then pulled out to show off his dribbling skills for the club’s media channels.
His showpieces came after he looked in good form in a squad training drill held at the rugby league centre of excellence for New South Wales. Gordon was the most prolific in a session that took place before dozens of Blues in the shadow of the Accor Stadium - where Everton had defeated Celtic to win the Sydney Super Cup days earlier.
