Anthony Gordon started on the left wing a few weeks after transferring to Barcelona.

Anthony Gordon has spoken to Marcus Rashford following his €80 million move from Newcastle United to Barcelona this summer. Gordon, 25, was wanted by Arsenal and Bayern Munich ahead of the 2026 summer transfer window, but Barcelona finalised a deal before Gordon went to North America for the upcoming World Cup. The Everton academy graduate is expected to compete with Raphinha for a place in the starting XI at Camp Nou next year and he will become the third English player to play for Barcelona in the modern era, following Gary Lineker and Rashford. Gordon confirmed the transfer in comments to talkSPORT, describing the last two weeks as having been very busy and expressing his ambition to win everything at Barcelona.

Marcus Rashford acted as a mentor to Anthony Gordon during his transition. Marcus Rashford had a 2025-26 loan spell with Barcelona.

The contract from Newcastle's purchase of Anthony Gordon from Everton states that Everton is entitled to 15 percent of Gordon's transfer from Newcastle, a sum amounting to 12 million euros. Newcastle is also eligible for additional bonuses that could total 10 million euros. These bonuses consist of 1 million euros for each season that Gordon plays in a minimum of 60 percent of matches, plus another 5 million euros contingent on trophies won by Barcelona with Gordon.

A statement from Newcastle United has confirmed the sale of Anthony Gordon to Barcelona for a significant undisclosed fee. The completion of the transfer was delayed by eight hours due to a paperwork hold-up. Newcastle sporting director Ross Wilson stated that discussions with some of Europe's top clubs had taken place in recent weeks. Wilson also said that the agreement for Gordon's move to the Camp Nou includes several astute clauses, and he confirmed there had been interest in the player from a number of Europe's leading clubs over a period of time.

Anthony Gordon reached an agreement with Barcelona two days before his unveiling. Many expected Gordon to move to Bayern Munich, but Barcelona made an offer he found highly acceptable and convinced Newcastle to accept. According to The Guardian, the most testing part of negotiations was the payment structure of the €80 million transfer fee. The same report claims there was no such delay to the discussion of Gordon’s new salary, which will supposedly be around $403,000 per week and immediately places him among the top of Barcelona’s current earners.

Barcelona have announced that Anthony Gordon has completed his move to the club, signing a five-year deal. A statement on Barcelona’s official website said that FC Barcelona and Newcastle United have reached an agreement for Gordon to join for the next five seasons. Barcelona did not disclose the transfer fee for the 25-year-old, but a reported £69.3 million fee means Newcastle United could have made a significant profit on the £45m they paid to Everton for him in January 2023.

It is understood that Barcelona paid a fixed transfer fee of €80 million for Anthony Gordon, with a potential for an additional €10 million in performance-related bonuses. Gordon is expected to earn approximately €7 million net per season, which is about double the wages he received at Newcastle.

Anthony Gordon stated that he found out very late from Barca that they wanted him. He also said that as soon as he knew Barca was a serious option, his decision was clear. Gordon said he had always wanted Barca, describing the club as the biggest in the world. He added that joining is what he dreamed of as a child. Gordon answered some questions in Spanish at his unveiling.

It includes a clause, which was inserted by sporting director Ross Wilson, that could result in Newcastle receiving up to €1 million per season if Gordon plays in 60 per cent of fixtures.

Barcelona quickly reached an agreement to sign Anthony Gordon from Newcastle and are close to finalizing his arrival for £75m, including add-ons. Gordon will replace Marcus Rashford, as he is viewed as an improvement in both footballing and financial terms. From a footballing perspective, Barcelona sees him as more intense defensively and in the press, very similar to what Raphinha provides, and a better option than Rashford overall. Financially, he will have a smaller impact on fair play due to how the amortization will be distributed and because he will have a lower salary.

According to Ben Jacobs, Anthony Gordon will be unveiled by Barcelona at 12 UK today. Gordon has passed his medical and signed a five-year contract.

It is understood that Barcelona are in discussions with Newcastle United to sign Anthony Gordon. Amid speculation over his future, Gordon did not play in Newcastle’s final six Premier League games. Head coach Eddie Howe omitted the player from his squad upon his return from injury, citing a need to focus on the future. This decision has been interpreted by some as a clear indication of an impending departure from Tyneside. Any bidding war to sign him could cause his valuation, currently rumoured to be around £75 million, to escalate considerably.

The Magpies value Gordon at €85-90 million, but Barcelona are unwilling to pay that much for a player whose Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) is €57.1m. The winger’s contract demands are within Barca’s wage structure, and the club is willing to offer him a five-year deal.

BILD confirms Barcelona's interest and also reports that president Joan Laporta personally made contact and expressed transfer interest.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Anthony Gordon is willing to make financial concessions to play for FC Barcelona, and the English international considers the club and the project of Hansi Flick his main priority.

Romano stated that he is not aware of Barcelona actively working on a deal for Gordon at this stage, nor of any negotiations, contacts, or discussions. He has heard that while Barcelona are checking some wingers on the market, Anthony Gordon is too expensive. Gordon is set to be very expensive this summer, as Newcastle's price begins at €100 million, though it may be possible to negotiate to around €80, €85 or €90 million with bonuses.

Team Talk reports that Barcelona have shown interest in Anthony Gordon in recent weeks. Gordon's representatives have informed Newcastle they are open to exploring opportunities this summer, leading to strong interest from both England and abroad.

According to Mundo Deportivo and 'Tu diràs' from RAC1, Barcelona's sporting management appreciates Gordon's profile. The main obstacle is his high price, as Newcastle United is asking for 85 million euros for Gordon.

Anthony Gordon has been listed as a potential target by FC Barcelona for the upcoming summer transfer window. The club is looking into the possibility of adding him to their attacking lineup, provided they can generate funds through the sale of existing players. Gordon, who is currently with Newcastle, is one of four Premier League players that Barcelona is considering, alongside Jérémy Doku, Dejan Kulusevski, and Luis Diaz. The interest of the financially constrained Catalan club is dependent on their ability to sell some current squad members, with Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres identified as possible departures, to ensure they have the financial leeway needed for new acquisitions.
