Barcelona push for Newcastle striker Anthony Gordon

FC Barcelona is advancing a deal for 25-year-old Anthony Gordon of Newcastle. The club faces strong interest from Bayern Munich and Liverpool. Gordon has indicated a preference for joining Barcelona's project. Gordon, an England international, is also courted by Bayern Munich and Liverpool. Both clubs have submitted formal inquiries. Gordon's decision aligns with the project overseen by Hansi Flick, Deco and Joan Laporta. He expressed enthusiasm to work under the trio's leadership. Barcelona's sporting director traveled to London last week. The visit aimed to discuss a potential transfer for Joao Pedro of Chelsea. The trip also served to advance the priority pursuit of Gordon. Barcelona aims to conclude the Gordon signing before the transfer window closes. Securing the striker would reinforce the club's attacking options for the upcoming season.
