Gordon looks set to leave Newcastle United this summer, with various reports surrounding his ideal next move.
According to The Sun, one factor could be that the England international wants to live in London, which is why Arsenal are currently favorites to win the title.
However, according to the Telegraph, Gordon comes from a Liverpool-supporting family, so that could be something to keep an eye on.
Meanwhile, the report in The Sun also suggests that Bayern Munich could be attractive for the 25-year-old as it would give him the chance to link up with England team-mate Harry Kane.
Anthony Gordon’s transfer schedule
- October 25, 2025 – Liverpool have identified Gordon as one of their top targets to replace Mohamed Salah, according to Football Insider.
- February 14, 2026 – Our information is that Liverpool are the frontrunners for Gordon, but Arsenal and Manchester City are also interested.
- February 20, 2026 – Goal report that Gordon himself has called transfer speculation about his future “rubbish”.
- April 13, 2026 – Bayern Munich are the latest to be linked with Gordon by Florian Plettenberg.
- April 16, 2026 – The Telegraph reports that Gordon is open to leaving Newcastle, with Liverpool, Arsenal and Bayern named as suitors.
Arsenal could sign Anthony Gordon
Arsenal clearly have problems in attack at the moment, with Gabriel Martinelli only scoring one Premier League goal all season, while Leandro Trossard is yet to score for the Gunners in all competitions in 2026.
Gordon, on the other hand, has an impressive 17 goals and four assists in all competitions for Newcastle this season, so he will certainly strengthen Mikel Arteta’s side.
£75 million isn’t bad for a player of his caliber, so we’d give this a 21/25 on our Transfer Fit rating system…

Gordon is at a good stage in his career, in great form and has proven himself in the Premier League in a position Arsenal need to strengthen, so if they can indeed land Gordon for £75m it would definitely be great business.
