Anthony Gordon bags four goals in 6-1 away win at Qarabag

Barcelona have agreed a deal worth more than £69 million with Newcastle United for England forward Anthony Gordon.

As reported by BBC Sport on Wednesday, the two clubs had been in advanced negotiations in recent days and have now reached an agreement worth in excess of €80m for the 24-year-old winger.

The BBC said, “Gordon is expected to complete the final formalities of the move before linking up with his England team-mates for their training camp in the United States ahead of the World Cup.”

The BBC also reported that “Bayern Munich also held discussions with Newcastle over a possible transfer, but the German champions were unable to match the Premier League club’s valuation. Barcelona eventually submitted an offer acceptable to Newcastle.
