Barcelona have entered the race to sign Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon. The Catalan club are desperately seeking a dynamic forward to bolster their attack ahead of the summer transfer window. Sporting director Deco has already held discussions with the player's representatives in Catalonia, but Bayern Munich remain strong rivals in the battle for his signature.
Bayern Munich have stepped up their pursuit of Anthony Gordon by presenting the Newcastle winger with a "concrete" transfer offer. The Bundesliga champions are now leading the race for the England international, while Barcelona falling behind due to financial constraints.
FC Barcelona are reportedly interested in Newcastle United's Anthony Gordon, and so are Bayern Munich, who view the Englishman as a top candidate to strengthen their wing this summer.
Bayern Munich are refusing to give up on their pursuit of Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon as they look to bolster their attacking options for next season. The German giants have identified the England international as a primary target, but a significant gap in valuation remains between the two clubs.
Dietmar Hamann has urged Bayern Munich to hijack Barcelona’s move for Marcus Rashford, labelling the Manchester United forward a "brilliant" option available for just €30 million (£26m/$35m). The former Germany international believes the versatile attacker represents significantly better value than Newcastle’s Anthony Gordon as the Bavarian giants look to bolster their frontline.
Anthony Gordon was once regarded as FC Bayern’s top target. However, it now appears he is merely the best available alternative. Indeed, the club have reportedly identified RB Leipzig’s Yan Diomande as their main target for next summer, according to The Athletic. However, because the club’s hierarchy believes the deal would be too expensive, Newcastle United’s forward Gordon has emerged as the preferred alternative.
The former front-runner in the race to sign Cologne’s rising star has reportedly dropped out of the transfer chase, leaving Bayern Munich in pole position.
Newcastle's season has unravelled; with five Premier League games remaining and in the thick of a dire run of form, the Magpies find themselves closer to the bottom three than they are to the Champions League places, and their hopes of securing any form of European football are fading fast. To make matters worse, their struggles are unfolding against the backdrop of significant upheaval behind the scenes as pressure mounts on head coach Eddie Howe.
Liverpool are expected to be active in the summer transfer window, with attacking reinforcements required at Anfield, and Michael Owen has told GOAL why “brilliant player” Anthony Gordon could be a shrewd investment. The England international, who is currently on Newcastle’s books, came through the ranks at Everton but grew up as a Reds supporter.
It appeared that Nicolas Jackson’s time at FC Bayern would end when his loan expired, with no chance of a permanent deal. Could the situation be changing?
Newcastle are reportedly prepared to discuss Anthony Gordon’s departure if Bayern Munich meet their eye-watering £75 million ($101m) valuation. The England international is a top target for the German giants and the Magpies could be open to a sale as they seek to fund a squad overhaul in the summer.
Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon is reportedly "open" to swapping the Premier League for the Bundesliga as Bayern Munich step up their pursuit of the England international. The 25-year-old has emerged as a primary target for the Bavarian side, who are looking to bolster their attacking options this summer with high-level European experience.
