Chelsea bid rejected, Everton stance, new contract talks - Anthony Gordon transfer state of play

Everton, however, have said they have 'no interest' in entertaining bids for the England Under-21 international - a position held since he was the subject of attention from Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur earlier in the summer.

But Everton's resolve is likely to be tested should Chelsea's pursuit of Gordon become sustained, with the club having secured a number of high profile signings already this summer.
