Newcastle star Anthony Gordon has sparked rumours over his future on Tyneside after naming a Premier League as one of his 'favourite players ever' and role model.
Anthony Gordon sympathised with Alexander Isak, who is heavily linked with a move away from Newcastle to Liverpool. The Sweden international is reportedly pushing for a move away from St James’ Park, a situation that closely mirrors Gordon’s own experience a year ago.
Newcastle United have been dealt a major injury blow as Anthony Gordon picked up an injury during a pre-season friendly against Atletico Madrid on Saturday. Gordon, who started as a No.9 in the absence of a main striker, limped off the field with a knock, leaving the fans sweating, although manager Eddie Howe later provided a positive update on the player's condition.
Anthony Gordon was brutally criticised for his challenge on Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk which led to his sending off at the stroke of half-time, leaving Newcastle United down to ten players. In a moment madness, the English forward flew into Van Dijk's right leg from the back as the Reds defender was left with stud marks on his calf.
Anthony Gordon penned an emotional goodbye to his "brother" Alexander Isak after seeing his Newcastle team-mate leave St. James' Park. The summer-long drama surrounding Isak finally reached its conclusion, with the Swedish forward sealing a record-breaking £125 million ($169m) switch from Tyneside to Liverpool on transfer deadline day.
Marcus Rashford struck twice in nine minutes to sink Newcastle and reignite his career on the Champions League stage with Barcelona. Anthony Gordon grabbed his first goal in the competition but instead chose to praise his fellow England international along with midfield duo Pedri and Frenkie de Jong, who ran the show in the 2-1 win at St James’ Park.
England defender Dan Burn revealed a hilarious dressing room question from Newcastle United team-mate Anthony Gordon after the Three Lions sealed their berth in the 2026 World Cup. England maintained their 100 per cent record in the qualifiers as they thrashed Latvia 5-0 in Riga on Tuesday, courtesy of a brace from captain and star striker Harry Kane.
Newcastle made it successive Champions League wins on Tuesday with what was ultimately a routine 3-0 win over Jose Mourinho's Benfica at St James' Park. Anthony Gordon scored in Europe for the fourth time this season, before Harvey Barnes came off the bench to wrap up maximum points with a brace for Eddie Howe's side. There was even a remarkable assist for Toon goalkeeper Nick Pope.
England are going to the 2026 World Cup, and they are going there in style after another 5-0 win away from home as Latvia became the latest victims of a team that is well and truly taking shape under Thomas Tuchel. The Three Lions have booked their place at next summer's bonanza in North America with two games to spare after winning their first six qualifiers, without conceding a single goal in the process.
A typically insatiable Harry Kane fired England to the 2026 World Cup as the captain scored twice in the 5-0 hammering of Latvia which extended the Three Lions' 100 percent record in qualifying. Kane, who had missed Thursday's friendly win over Wales with an ankle injury, returned to set a new England record by scoring more than once for the 13th time in international football to move on to 76 goals for his country.
