Barcelona have completed the signing of England forward Anthony Gordon from Newcastle United on a five-year contract. The deal is worth an initial €70 million, potentially rising to over €80 million with add-ons. The 25-year-old joins Bayern Munich and Liverpool as suitors who also showed interest in the versatile attacker.

Gordon's arrival comes after coach Hansi Flick requested an attacking shakeup this summer. The primarily left-sided player joins an already potent front line featuring Lamine Yamal and Raphinha. His signing follows Robert Lewandowski's departure and precedes Barcelona's pursuit of Atlético Madrid's Julián Álvarez, valued at over €100 million.

The Newcastle exit marks Gordon's third club move in three years, after joining for €50 million in 2023. He scored 39 goals in 152 appearances for the Magpies, adding versatility to Barcelona's attack. The deal leaves uncertainty regarding Marcus Rashford's future after his loan season at Barcelona.
