Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola's head has been turned by Everton star Anthony Gordon, according to reliable reports.

The Lowdown: Big season ahead...

The Premier League champions have seen a real summer of change at Eastlands with big name players moving on to pastures new and blockbuster signings coming in to replace them.

Raheem Sterling, Gabriel Jesus, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Fernandinho no longer sport Sky Blue despite many faithful seasons with the likes of Erling Haaland, Kalvin Phillips, Stefan Ortega, Julian Alvarez and now Sergio Gomez arriving for Guardiola.

City have started the 2022/2023 season very brightly with two routine victories as they seek to retain their domestic crown yet again.

The Latest: Guardiola's head turned by Gordon...

Guardiola has been candid in explaining that his side are unlikely to any more business before September 1, but according to The Times, he is a real admirer of one player.

Indeed, Toffees ace Gordon is said to have turned the Spaniard's head and City's manager is apparently 'understood to be a fan'.

The marquee forward, who Everton value at around £50 million, is also said to be attracting real interest from Chelsea after both Spurs and Newcastle eyed moves earlier in the window.

The Verdict: Make a move?

A seriously talented homegrown asset, Boreham Wood boss Luke Garrard has even called Gordon 'frightening' after his side came up against Everton in the FA Cup last season.

As per WhoScored, the 21-year-old starlet completed his side joint-fourth most successful take-ons per 90 in the top flight last year with Gordon also attempting their fourth-highest rate of attempts at goal every game.

He was also indispensable at Goodison Park with him and goalkeeper Jordan Pickford being the only two Everton stars to play 35 league games over 2021/2022.

Indeed, Gordon could well be one to watch if Guardiola is taking a liking.
