sportsMay 27, 202625468

Barcelona have agreed a €70m deal to sign Anthony Gordon from Newcastle, and the winger is set to travel to Spain this week for a medical. The fee equates to roughly £70m and will send Gordon from St James' Park to the Camp Nou. Barcelona expect Gordon to bolster their wide attack as the club pushes for LaLiga and Champions League success. Newcastle will receive the transfer funds to reinvest in the squad ahead of the close of the window.

🚨 Barcelona reach agreement with Newcastle United to sign Anthony Gordon. #FCBarcelona deal for 25yo winger €80m + future sale % to #NUFC - personal terms fine. Bayern Munich pursed England int’l but #FCBayern unwilling to hit asking price 🚨 @theathleticfc.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/643...

Excellent move for all parties imo, we bank a big fee, he gets a move to one of the biggest clubs in the world and we don’t have to come up against him next season. He leaves with nothing but appreciation for what he has done here imo, good luck to him

I take it people don’t get to see PL games in Barcelona

What buried treasure did Barcelona find during the Camp Nou renovations to pay for this? It’s going to be hard to watch Olmo -> Gordon final third balls knowing both of their signings likely violate financial fair play.

How were they able to afford 70 millions when they can’t pay 30 millions for Rashford?

Fook me that seems a lot for someone who has had a poor season. Can Leeds now sign Harvey fooking Barnes just to stop him scoring against Leeds.

🚨 BREAKING: Barcelona reach an agreement in principle with Newcastle to sign Anthony Gordon. £70m plus bonuses. Barcelona have pencilled in a medical for this week and anticipate the deal is formalised quickly. Bayern expected to lose out despite also agreeing terms with Gordon.

Anthony Gordon at Barcelona. Amazing. He’ll order a lasagne as soon as he gets there and then get heatstroke.

Being reported #NUFC has agreed a fee between €70-80m for Anthony Gordon who will travel to Barcelona tomorrow for his medical. Glad this has been completed quickly. Puts money in our war chest. It has to be invested wisely. Good luck to AG - he’s been good for us and we’ve been good for him.

Also reported #NUFC has agreed a sell on agreement with a % of any future fee. The timing, amount and terms of the fee suggests Ross Wilson has got the best for the club possible. Fair play.

Thanks and good luck to Anthony Gordon at Barca. Despite great goals for NUFC, I will most enjoy remembering his put down to Hume, ‘If you want my shirt I’ll give it to you after the game’ delivered with a face worthy of Lily Savage in a derby game we can be proud of #nufc

I wish Anthony Gordon nothing but the best, he’s been part of some great moments. Despite being a little under par for us lately, when he was at his best he was electric. Good luck in Barcelona. #NUFC

Agreed. Feels like a great solution for everyone. Decent fee for NUFC without having to sell to a direct rival and a great move for Gordon.

Anthony Gordon is set to become just the third Englishman to play for Barcelona in the last century 🤯 Per Fabrizio Romano, a $93M deal is in place for Gordon to swap Newcastle for Barca 🤑

How does Barcelona magically keep coming up with money like this when they're always in financial trouble? If you rate Gordon higher than Martinelli and Madueke, I guess this is a fair market price (about £69M). Honestly a bit relieved he's not coming to Arsenal.

@gunnerohan.bsky.social

If Anthony Gordon is commanding an £70m price tag, then a Brazilian international and Premier League winner like Gabi Martinelli is easily in that same bracket, no? And I'm not saying we should sell him at all btw, but the market value observation is completely valid.

Yes but Barcelona keep logic and finances separated at all costs

Gabi has a year left (with an option to extend). Gordon was I think tied down til 2030. Other than that would agree
