Fans waiting to get Anthony Gordon’s signature after training are likely to be left disappointed, given he may not even notice them in his gargantuan new Hummer.

The massive American GMC produced truck stands at a whopping 2 metres, and an even more imposing 2.2metres wide.

Gordon got a hefty pay rise only last summer when he joined Newcastle from Everton in a £45million deal.
He’s so far proved his worth, with 11 goals and 10 assists in 35 games last season, motoring up and down the left wing with plenty of horsepower of his own.
Those performances saw him linked with boyhood side Liverpool at the start of the transfer window, but a move never materialised, with the Reds instead landing Federico Chiesa as a new winger.
The scenes of Gordon in his new Hummer were at least far more relaxed than when he last went viral driving, in January 2023 playing for Everton.
The Toffees lost 2-1 to Southampton as they plunged towards relegation danger, and supporters intimidated a number of players outside the stadium post-match.
Defender Yerry Mina confronted fans in tense scenes, while Gordon refused to get out of his car.
In a Mercedes at the time, Gordon was road blocked in by fans who were heard telling him ‘get out of our club’ and ‘you’re not fit to wear the shirt’.
