Newcastle star wanted by two European giants ahead of summer transfer window

  • Newcastle United forward Anthony Gordon is attracting significant transfer interest from European giants Barcelona and Bayern Munich, with both clubs in discussions with the Tyneside club.
  • Gordon, who joined Newcastle from Everton for £45 million in January 2023, is now rumoured to be valued around £75 million, with Liverpool also identified as long-term admirers.
