The distance between the two venues can be measured in yards. But the list of players who have moved directly from Everton to Liverpool is very short. Very short indeed.
And there has subsequently been little appetite for such moves, although admittedly the gap in quality between the respective squads on Merseyside in recent years has lessened the desire for a cross-Stanley Park deal, at least in that direction. That the Liverpool recruitment team - led by new Fenway Sports Group head of football Michael Edwards and sporting director Richard Hughes - will be assessing Gordon is a no-brainer, given his Liverpool links and undoubted quality. Incoming manager Arne Slot will also surely be aware of the 23-year-old.
But history suggests it shouldn't be completely discounted in the long term, should Liverpool decide to take a closer look at Gordon. With both transfers, there was a significant period between playing for the two Merseyside clubs. And while any move for Gordon could ultimately depend on the player agitating for a move, his appearing for Liverpool makes sense to one former Everton winger.
