England Forward Anthony Gordon Set to Complete His Transfer to Barcelona From Newcastle
Barcelona are close to signing Anthony Gordon after a £69.3 million deal and a five-year contract were reported.
- On Thursday, Newcastle United midfielder Anthony Gordon arrived in Catalonia to finalize his £69.3 million transfer to Barcelona, with the 25-year-old set to undergo a medical before signing a five-year contract.
- After La Liga loosened spending constraints last week, Barcelona returned to the 1:1 rule, enabling the Catalans to beat Bayern Munich in the race to sign Gordon.
- President Joan Laporta confirmed the move, stating the club will not make signings "for show," as sporting director Deco and manager Hansi Flick studied specific positions to reinforce.
- Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe loses a key player, but the sale unlocks capital for new signings; the Magpies are already considering potential replacements, including former winger Abde Ezzalzouli.
- Concluding his three-and-a-half-year spell on Tyneside, Gordon leaves the Magpies after scoring 39 goals in 152 appearances, with an official announcement expected before the weekend.
