Dortmund still keen on signing Everton’s Gordon

German Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund are plotting a second move for Everton youngster Anthony Gordon, according to a report on the Football Insider.

Dortmund approached the Toffees regarding Gordon during the summer transfer window but were sent packing by the Merseyside club.

Gordon is one of the highest-rated players in the current academy and was rewarded with a position in the matchday squad for Saturday’s victory over Southampton in the Premier League. 

The 18-year-old has starred for the Under-23 side in the Premier League 2 on multiple occasions this season and is tipped for a very bright future. 

Should Everton be worried?

Not really. Manager Marco Silva recently made some positive comments about Gordon’s future at the club and the player himself looks happy.

Being in the matchday squad would also have been incredibly pleasing to the teenager and he could make his first-team bow soon.

The only worrying thing is German clubs’ recent acquisition of young English talent and the success that they’ve gone on to have. That could be one thing that could tempt Gordon to make the switch.
