Everton, Liverpool to battle for Sheffield United teenager?

Everton and Liverpool are reportedly in the hunt for Sheffield United teenager Kyron Gordon.

The 18-year-old is yet to make his first-team debut for the Blades but was named on the bench against Bristol Rovers in the FA Cup earlier this month.

According to the Daily Mail, Everton and Liverpool are both keeping an eye on the centre-back, who penned a two-year professional contract with Chris Wilder's side in July 2019.

After the clash with Bristol Rovers, Blades boss Wilder revealed that Gordon had "been involved with the first team a fair bit since pre-season".

Liverpool - now fifth in the Premier League table - will be looking to return to winning ways in the league when they continue their 2020-21 campaign away to Tottenham Hotspur on Thursday night.

Everton, meanwhile, are next in action at home to Leicester City on Wednesday evening.
