Arsenal keen on Anthony Gordon
Arsenal are hoping to build a team with an English core, and Gordon could prove to be an excellent addition. They need more creativity on the flanks, and Gordon will add goals to the team. He is also versatile enough to operate centrally, and that could make him a very handy option in the attack.
The opportunity to join Arsenal will be quite exciting for the Newcastle star. He will be able to fight for league titles and compete in the Champions League regularly with Arsenal.
Newcastle are looking to build a formidable team for the future, and selling one of their best attacking players would be a huge blow. They are already struggling in the final third, and they have been overly dependent on Gordon.
Where will Gordon end up?
Meanwhile, the 25-year-old has been linked with Liverpool as well. It remains to be seen where he ends up. The player is entering the peak years of his career, and this could be the right time for him to take the next step and join a bigger team, where he can fight for trophies.
A deal will not be straightforward, and Arsenal might have to pay well over the odds in order to convince Newcastle.
Gordon has 17 goals and five assists in all competitions this season, including 10 strikes and 12 Champions League matches.
