SIMON JORDAN is fuming with Anthony Gordon for his comments made after leaving Everton.

Gordon secured a £45m move to Newcastle in the final week of the transfer window.

His departure came after he missed three days of training in a row and then made his feelings even clearer by handing in a transfer request.

Gordon‘s actions weren’t exactly well-received on Merseyside with many feeling that he disrespected his boyhood club.

And he addressed the Goodison Park faithful when his exit was confirmed.

He said on social media: “It was a really difficult decision and it’s been a really tough week for me.

“I’ve been at Everton for my whole footballing career so far, so it’s been difficult.

“But this is an opportunity that I couldn’t really miss out on. I didn’t mean to disrespect or offend anyone at Everton.

“And I’m hoping they know that and hopefully they can reinvest the money now and stay in the Premier League.

“I never imagined it or wanted it to go like that, that’s why it’s been such a tough week for me.

“But I just couldn’t miss out on this opportunity and they got a lot of money for me.”

“So I’m hoping they can reinvest it into the squad.”

And talkSPORT host Jordan was angry with what Gordon said about his former club.

He said: “Players going from Everton to Newcastle saying ‘I’m glad I’ve gone so I can give the club back £45million’.

“Do one! You’re only going because it suits you!”

Gordon was paraded in front of his new fans ahead of their game against Southampton on Tuesday as Newcastle reached the Carabao Cup final.

He wasn’t able to play as he’s cup-tied having played earlier in the competition.

But the 21-year-year could make his debut against West Ham this weekend.
