TOP STORY: Chelsea could make fresh move for Gordon

Chelsea are discussing a second approach for Anthony Gordon after they had an initial transfer offer worth £40 million turned down by Everton, reports Sky Sports.

The 21-year-old winger was given the No. 10 jersey by his club this summer, and has been forced into a striker’s role early this season due to injuries to other players. He played a leading role in helping Everton to avoid relegation last season, and has become a fans’ favourite having come through the club’s academy.

Frank Lampard’s side stood firm against enquiries from Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United earlier this summer, but there is now a new battle to keep him at Goodison Park.

Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel is prepared to offer players as part of an exchange deal, though early indications are that Everton would not be interested in reuniting with Ross Barkley.

Gordon scored four goals from 35 appearances in the Premier League last season.
