Eddie Howe has described Anthony Gordon as a 'top talent' following the attacker’s move to Newcastle United from Everton.
After days of speculation, Gordon’s move to St James' Park was confirmed on Sunday afternoon. The England under-21 international had been on Tyneside over the weekend to complete his medical and put pen-to-paper on his deal.
Gordon, whose fee could rise to £45m with add-ons, was allowed to leave Goodison Park after submitting a transfer request and missing three days of training last week. Only the first of those days was described as a 'planned absence' by the club.
