Man City have joined the race to sign Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon amid interest from Liverpool, according to reports.
The Citizens are yet to make a new signing in the summer transfer market after winning the Premier League title for a fourth consecutive season.
Pep Guardiola s side beat West Ham 3-1 to pip Arsenal to the title by two points.
There have been plenty of rumours about potential outgoings at the Etihad Stadium with speculation surrounding the futures of Kevin de Bruyne, Ederson, Bernardo Silva and Jack Grealish.
But are also looking to bring in new faces over the summer transfer window and the latest speculation is linking them to Newcastle and England winger Gordon.
Reports last week claimed that Liverpool had made an approach over the possibility of bringing Gordon to Anfield in the summer but have not made a bid yet.
Luke Edwards, who wrote the article, responded on X to a fan who suggested that Newcastle had ‘touted’ Gordon to a Premier League rival in Liverpool.
: He wasn’t offered to Liverpool. There was a conversation as Liverpool were interested and Newcastle were in a mess with PSR. No bid was made and obvious from those conversations that Liverpool wouldn’t meet valuation. Gordon’s head is in a mess as he thought he had chance to join boyhood club.

Man City have joined Liverpool in the race to sign Gordon this summer and have registered their interest in landing a deal for the England international following his impressive season at St James’ Park.
Liverpool have held talks over a deal to sign Gordon, but Newcastle’s high demands have so far put the Merseysiders off from pressing forward with the deal.
Sources say Pep Guardiola wants to bring in a “lethal” forward, who can provide a cutting edge after doubts have emerged over the futures of multiple first-team stars at the Etihad, including Jack Grealish, Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva.
De Bruyne has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia this summer and transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has given an update on the Man City midfielder s future.
