Newcastle United Set £60 Million Price Tag on Anthony Gordon Amid Growing Transfer Interest
Newcastle United have set a substantial price tag of £60 million on winger Anthony Gordon as transfer interest intensifies from clubs across Europe. The 24-year-old has attracted significant attention following his impressive performances this season, with Newcastle determined to hold onto their prized asset unless a record-breaking offer arrives.
Watch the highlights:
Gordon, who joined Newcastle from Everton in January 2023 for around £40 million, has developed into one of the Premier League's most exciting attacking talents. His direct running, technical ability, and goal threat have made him a key component in Eddie Howe's plans for the Magpies' future.
Several top-flight clubs have been monitoring Gordon's situation, with Newcastle aware that any potential suitors would need to smash their transfer record to secure his services. The England international's contract runs until 2028, giving Newcastle significant leverage in any negotiations.
A source close to the club revealed that Newcastle consider Gordon untouchable unless their valuation is met in full. "Anthony is a crucial player for us. He's improved enormously since arriving and we see him as central to our project," the source said.
Gordon has contributed 8 goals and 5 assists in all competitions this season, helping Newcastle push for European qualification. His versatility to play across the front three adds to his value in the current market.
With the summer transfer window approaching, Newcastle are prepared to reject initial enquiries and wait for clubs willing to meet their substantial demands. The valuation reflects both Gordon's on-field importance and the economic reality of the current transfer market where Premier League talent commands premium fees.
