While Gordon has been a player of interest for Liverpool, with a reported £75 million deal discussed earlier in the summer, Slot's focus appears to be firmly on the strengths of his current lineup.
Gordon would likely add depth to positions occupied by Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo, both of whom have proven their worth this season. Diaz has been particularly impactful, netting five goals in the Premier League, showcasing his ability to find the back of the net consistently.

'We're not robots'- Tottenham duo conquer with Manchester City player on packed football calendar
Tottenham's coach and captain both agreed that football nowadays is not about the quality but the quantity of games.
He stated, "What pleased me most is that even if a lot of new players come in, they don’t come in and try to have a good individual performance; they work hard for the team." This mentality is crucial as Liverpool aims to build on their strong start and push for silverware this season.
Slot's approach indicates a strategic philosophy focused on maximizing the potential of his existing players rather than pursuing new signings for the sake of it.
