La Liga champions Barcelona have reportedly reached an agreement with Newcastle United for the transfer of England winger Anthony Gordon in a blockbuster deal worth around €80 million.
BusinessDay earlier reported that Barcelona and Bayern Munich were both in advanced talks over a possible move for the Newcastle star, but the Spanish giants have now moved ahead to finalise the transfer.
According to reports, Barcelona will pay €80 million for Gordon, with the agreement also including a sell-on clause as both clubs push to complete the move before the player departs with the England squad for their World Cup training camp in the United States.
Negotiations accelerated significantly over the past few days as Barcelona and Newcastle sought a swift resolution. Bayern Munich also held formal discussions with Newcastle but were reportedly unwilling to meet the Premier League club’s valuation.
Gordon remains under contract at Newcastle until 2030, allowing the Magpies to command a fee well above his estimated market valuation of €60 million.
