Newcastle United forward Anthony Gordon is attracting significant transfer interest from European giants Barcelona and Bayern Munich, with both clubs in discussions with the Tyneside club. Gordon, who joined Newcastle from Everton for £45 million in January 2023, is now rumoured to be valued around £75 million, with Liverpool also identified as long-term admirers.
Gordon's Impact at Newcastle
He has been a pivotal figure in Newcastle's recent success, contributing to their historic 2024-25 Carabao Cup triumph and Champions League qualification, scoring 17 goals this season, including 10 in the Champions League. Despite his strong performance, his influence has waned amid ongoing transfer speculation, leading to his omission from the starting XI by head coach Eddie Howe, signalling a potential impending departure.
International Recognition
Gordon has also earned a place in England's World Cup squad, and is expected to compete with Marcus Rashford for the starting spot on the left wing.
Bayern Munich and Barcelona are both keen to bolster their attacking options, with Gordon's pace and direct style seen as a perfect fit for their systems. Newcastle, however, are under no pressure to sell, but a substantial offer could test their resolve.
