Anthony Gordon has attracted interest from another Premier League club ahead of the transfer window closing.
Gordon has been highly impressive since joining current club Newcastle United from Everton on a long-term deal worth £45million.
The English winger has been linked to Liverpool throughout the transfer window, but after confirming the signing of Federico Chiesa on Thursday, a deadline day bid from the Merseyside club seems unlikely,
But now, another Premier League side has expressed an interest in signing Gordon.

According to The Daily Mail, Arsenal are interested in Anthony Gordon, but a deal will not be possible ahead of the transfer window closing at 11pm on Friday.
Gunners sporting director Edu is believed to be a big admirer of Gordon, leading to Arsenal weighing up making a move for the 23-year-old next summer.
However, Gordon is said to be very happy at Newcastle, and has entered preliminary talks over a new contract rewarding him for his impressive form last season.
The talented winger made 48 appearances for Newcastle United last season, scoring 12 goals and registering a further 11 assists.
His breakout season with the Tyneside club led to him being included in Gareth Southgate's England squad for the 2024 European Championships, the first major international tournament for Gordon.
His talent attracted the interest of Liverpool, who reportedly came close to agreeing a deal with Newcastle which would have seen Joe Gomez move in the opposite direction , but ultimately it fell through.
“I’ve seen Anthony come back in a good place. Especially this past week, he had a really short training period before that first game,” Newcastle manager Eddie Howe said ahead of the match against Bournemouth last weekend.
“We put him in as he’s a difference maker, it takes the younger players less time to get up to speed but I think this week he has looked back to his best.
“I have been in the game too long to make those statements [on whether Gordon could join Liverpool].
“What I will say is from my part and the club’s part we will do everything we can to keep our best players but I am not a fortune teller.”
