Bayern Munich and Barcelona Target Anthony Gordon in Fresh Bids for Newcastle Star
Anthony Gordon‘s future at Newcastle United remains uncertain as two European powerhouses intensify their pursuit of the England international. The 25-year-old winger has attracted serious interest from Bayern Munich and Barcelona following an impressive campaign that saw him net 10 goals across European competition, including a strike against Barcelona in August.
Bayern Munich have taken concrete steps by presenting Gordon‘s representatives with terms for a five-year contract, according to reports from Sky Sports Germany. The Bundesliga champions remain willing to pursue alternative targets if Newcastle‘s valuation proves prohibitive.
Spanish media outlets have documented Gordon‘s agents in meetings with Barcelona director of football Deco. The Catalan outfit appears active in the attacking market, particularly with England teammate Marcus Rashford expected to return to Manchester United once his loan spell concludes this summer.
Newcastle are demanding approximately £80 million for Gordon, a fee roughly double the amount they paid Everton for his services in January 2023. Whether Bayern Munich, Barcelona, or any other interested party will match this substantial valuation remains unclear. Newcastle United has declined to comment on the matter.
International Credentials and World Cup Outlook
Gordon brings 17 international caps to the conversation after making his England debut in March 2024 during a friendly against Brazil. His selection appears likely for Thomas Tuchel‘s squad at this summer’s World Cup, especially following his return to Newcastle‘s bench in Saturday’s 3-1 victory over Brighton after recovering from a minor injury.
The winger represented England at Euro 2024 under Gareth Southgate, though his involvement was limited. He appeared as an unused substitute in six of the team’s seven matches and managed only a brief cameo in the 0-0 draw with Slovenia during group play. Despite limited tournament action, Gordon remains part of England‘s forward planning as international football resumes.
