Anthony Gordon brands Liverpool transfer talk 'rubbish'

Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon has emphatically dismissed reports linking him with a move to Liverpool, labeling the speculation as 'a load of rubbish'.

Speaking after scoring four times in Newcastle's 6-1 win over Qarabag, Gordon told the media he hasn't seen the reports and believes journalists just 'pick names out of a hat.' The 24-year-old previously had a move to Anfield on the verge of happening two summers ago but remains at St James' Park, where he helped the club win the Carabao Cup last season.
