# Everton: Pundit urges Toffees to cash in on “big money” Anthony Gordon

**[Everton](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/everton-fc-news/) have been urged to cash in on their 21-year-old star Anthony Gordon should they receive a “decent” offer, according to pundit Gabby Agbonlahor.**

### The Lowdown: Steady progression

Having burst onto the scene with Everton, Gordon has endured steady progression, particularly across the last season and a bit.

Last term, the England under-21 star bagged [four goals and two assists](https://www.fotmob.com/players/906937/anthony-gordon) from 35 games for Everton to register himself as the fourth-highest scorer in the Premier League.

This season, Gordon sits as the [Toffees’ top scorer](https://www.fotmob.com/teams/8668/stats/everton/players), though that has not too difficult to achieve for a side who rank as the [joint-second-lowest scorers](https://www.fotmob.com/leagues/47/stats/season/17664/teams/goals_team_match/team/8668/everton-teams) in the league. Of those 11 goals scored in the Premier League, Gordon has scored [three](https://www.fotmob.com/teams/8668/stats/everton/players).

### The Latest: Everton urged to cash in

According to [talkSPORT pundit Agbonlahor](https://talksport.com/who/gabriel-agbonlahor/), Everton should look to cash in on Gordon if a “decent” offer comes to fruition.

The former Aston Villa star’s claim comes in wake of Gordon’s links to Tottenham Hotspur, who are said to be [monitoring](https://www.football.london/tottenham-hotspur-fc/transfer-news/tottenham-anthony-gordon-ruslan-malinovskyi-25561700) him.

On those links, Agbonlahor told [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/agbonlahor-everton-backed-to-accept-tottenham-bid-for-anthony-gordon-after-latest-update/): *“If Spurs are interested in Anthony Gordon, I would definitely sell him.*

*“I feel like he hasn’t done anything really since he got linked with a move to Chelsea.*

*“Lampard’s been playing him from the bench in the last few games. That’s strange with the quality that he’s got.*

*“He’s not been putting in the performances. Did the big-money transfer links get to his head? There are questions to be asked there.*

*“He needs to sort himself out because clubs might be interested but they might not if they see your performances can drop so easily.*

*“I think if Everton can get a decent amount, they would sell him.”*

### The Verdict: For the right price…

Considering Everton’s troubles up-top, they would benefit from cashing in on Gordon and investing in a creative midfield outlet and a direct wide-man.

The Toffees have created [18 chances](https://www.fotmob.com/leagues/47/stats/season/17664/teams/big_chance_created_team/team/8668) and rank as the [seventh-worst](https://www.fotmob.com/leagues/47/stats/season/17664/teams/big_chance_created_team/team/8668) in this aspect, though it is worth noting that they have underachieved in terms of their [Expected Goals \[xG](https://www.fotmob.com/leagues/47/stats/season/17664/teams/expected_goals_team/team/8668)\] tally which is down to their total of [16 big chances missed.](https://www.fotmob.com/leagues/47/stats/season/17664/teams/big_chance_missed_team/team/8668)

A direct wide-forward who could operate in the half-space and take some pressure off of the main target man could work wonders.

If Everton decide to cash in on Gordon, then they should employ a similar approach.

Though, it has to be for the right price.
