Everton stand firm on decision to keep Anthony Gordon despite huge £60m offer from Chelsea and winger's desire to leave... but Toffees are still willing to sell for increased bid or make-weights moving to Goodison Park

Everton are standing firm on their decision to keep winger Anthony Gordon, despite Chelsea's £60million offer.

The 21-year-old has said he wants out of Goodison Park, and willing to say goodbye to his boyhood club in an ambitious move to further his young career.

But the Toffees are not changing their minds that easily, noting the offer made so far was below that of London rivals Tottenham, who were also keeen on Gordon's services at one point.

Everton could be persuaded to offload the England Under-21 international if the right price is on the table, or if they are given decent offers of players in return.
