Any potential deal could also be influenced by Newcastle’s need to manage their finances in line with the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR), which have previously shaped their transfer decisions.Newcastle have already had to operate within tight financial constraints, and a significant offer for Gordon could be difficult to reject if they need to balance the books.The club were previously open to a sale to help meet PSR requirements, but a move collapsed after Liverpool failed to match the £80million valuation in the summer of 2024.DAVEOCKOP later reported that Liverpool maintained active contact with Gordon’s representatives after that window, with the Englishman’s long-standing friendship with Curtis Jones helping to keep the Anfield link alive.Arsenal are now said to be interested in signing Gordon this summer, but they could face stiff competition from Bayern Munich. According to Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg, the Newcastle winger is Bayern’s “preferred candidate” as they look to strengthen their left-wing options.Plettenberg also reports that the Bundesliga champions have already held talks regarding Gordon, although no discussions have yet taken place with Newcastle United.He posted on X: “FC Bayern are seriously considering a move for Anthony #Gordon.

Concrete talks have already taken place, though the clubs are not yet in contact. #NUFC want to keep him.”Gordon is currently under contract with Newcastle United until 2030, with no release clause included in the deal. Any potential transfer fee is expected to be in the region of €60million.Bayern are actively seeking a high-quality, versatile attacker who can operate mainly on the left flank while also providing flexibility across the front line, a profile Gordon is believed to match.Gordon has scored 17 goals and provided five assists in 46 appearances for Eddie Howe’s in all competitions this season. anthony gordon Bayern Munich Newcastle United
