Talks between Newcastle and Liverpool regarding the 23-year-old were held but eventually collapsed after the Merseyside club failed to meet Newcastle's asking price, according to Telegraph Sport.READ MORE: Arne Slot first press conference date and time confirmed after deliberate Liverpool delay Gordon previously forced his way out of Everton in order to clinch a £45million move to Newcastle last year and to pressure another club to sell him in the span of a year and a half would no doubt harm his reputation with his current club.
