Speaking to the club’s official website, Gordon expressed his excitement. “I spent two amazing years at the club and left on a high after a really successful season for the team, and hopefully I can come back and do something similar this time around,” he said.
Barrow manager Pete Wild is expected to integrate Gordon into the squad quickly, hoping his return will provide the much-needed firepower up front. Gordon brings experience, familiarity with the club’s system, and a proven ability to deliver in League Two.
