Liverpool career[]
An impressive young talent, On 29 December 2020 Gordon made his debut for Derby at just 16 years old, with manager Wayne Rooney describing him as a 'fantastic player', and claiming he had been outperforming the senior players in training.
Just over a month later, it was confirmed that Liverpool had agreed a deal to sign the youngster, with a reported fee of around £1,000,000, plus potential add-ons. On 5 February 2021, the transfer was complete, and Gordon became a Liverpool player.
Gordon made an instant impact in the academy, netting six goals in just eight appearances for the U18s in the latter half of the 2020-21 season, and impressively scoring for the U23s side in his lone appearance.
Such impressive performances led to Gordon being involved with the senior side in pre-season, making his senior debut in a friendly against Wacker Innsbruck in July. On 21 September 2021, Gordon made his first competitive appearance for the club, starting and playing the full 90 minutes in a 3-0 win over Norwich in the EFL Cup.
On 9 January 2022, Gordon scored his first goal for the club, firing in the equaliser in an eventual 4-1 win over Shrewsbury in the FA Cup. This made him the club's second youngest goalscorer of all-time. A week later, the youngster came on as a late substitute in a 3-0 win over Brentford, making his Premier League debut and coming close to scoring again.
