According to family members, repeated calls and messages went unanswered. Growing increasingly worried, they contacted club representatives before ultimately attempting to reach former Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp, who still maintains a close mentor-like relationship with several young players. Klopp, who had attended the match as a guest, initially missed the calls, adding even more anxiety to the situation.
Nearly 30 minutes later, Klopp returned the call — and finally revealed what had happened. Gordon had suffered a severe emotional and physical breakdown in the dressing room after the final whistle. The pressure of recent expectations, combined with ongoing recovery challenges, reportedly overwhelmed him. Staff found him seated quietly, unable to speak, visibly shaken and completely drained.
While the incident was not medically critical, the emotional weight of the moment left many of his teammates and staff members deeply concerned. Once the news reached fans, social media was flooded with messages of love and encouragement for the young forward, with many admitting the situation brought them to tears.
Liverpool is expected to issue an official update soon, but early reports indicate Gordon is now resting and being closely supported by the club’s medical and psychological team. For now, supporters are simply grateful that he is safe — even as the scare leaves Anfield still trembling.
