Arsenal are leading the race to sign Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon, ahead of Liverpool and Manchester United, according to reports. The Gunners believe the 25-year-old England international would be happy to move to London, with a transfer fee of around £75 million expected to secure the deal despite Newcastle's £95 million valuation.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is a long-time admirer of Gordon, who has scored 10 Champions League goals this season and recorded a top speed of 36.1 km/h in the Premier League. The move would address Arsenal's need for a top-level left winger, as current options like Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard have struggled to deliver consistent performances.

Scouts from Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United, and Paris Saint-Germain were among 23 representatives watching Racing Genk's 3-3 Europa League draw with Dinamo Zagreb, eyeing young talents Konstantinos Karetsas, Zakaria El Ouahdi, Yaimar Medina, and Matte Smets. Meanwhile, Liverpool and Chelsea are pursuing Nottingham Forest's Nico Williams for over £60 million, while Dusan Vlahovic prioritizes a move to Barcelona as his Juventus contract expires this summer.
