Sources: Premier League attacker appealed by the idea of playing for Arteta at Arsenal
Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon is emerging as one of the standout names expected to dominate headlines during the upcoming summer transfer window.
The England international has enjoyed an impressive rise in recent seasons, establishing himself as one of Newcastle’s most dynamic attacking threats.
Now, with growing interest from both Premier League rivals and European heavyweights, speculation surrounding his future is intensifying.
Bayern Munich have already initiated contact with Gordon’s representatives, signaling that interest in the 25-year-old is no longer confined to England, sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside.
With Newcastle facing financial pressures and the possibility of needing to balance their books, Gordon’s situation could evolve rapidly, especially if substantial offers begin to arrive.
European interest signals Gordon’s rising reputation
Bayern Munich’s involvement highlights how highly Gordon is regarded beyond the Premier League.
The Bundesliga champions have a strong history of recruiting explosive wide attackers.
Some observers have linked Gordon’s openness to a potential move abroad to the success of players like Michael Olise, who have thrived after stepping into new environments.
The opportunity to compete regularly in Europe’s elite competitions, particularly the UEFA Champions League, is believed to be an important factor for players entering the peak years of their careers.
The England international has scored 17 goals for the Magpies this season in all competitions.
His versatility across the front line, combined with his relentless pressing and defensive commitment, fits the profile of modern wide forwards valued by elite clubs.
Arsenal hold strong interest in the Newcastle star
Interest from Arsenal has been particularly strong, with the North London club conducting extensive scouting assessments of Gordon’s performances.
Sources suggest that the possibility of working under Mikel Arteta could appeal to the player, given Arsenal’s structured tactical system and recent success in developing attacking talent.
Liverpool have also been closely linked with the winger. Their interest aligns with the club’s ongoing search for dynamic wide players capable of contributing both offensively and defensively.
Gordon’s energy and pressing intensity mirror the characteristics Liverpool traditionally value in attacking players.
Initially, Newcastle maintained a firm stance that Gordon was not available for transfer. However, that position may become more flexible if bids approach the levels currently being discussed in the media.
With Gordon’s market value estimated around €60 million, Newcastle are reportedly seeking a significantly higher figure, potentially in the range of €90-100 million.
