England's Newcastle football team winger Anthony Gordon may continue his career at Spanish football club Barcelona.
Idman.Biz reports that the Catalan representative has reached a full agreement with the 25-year-old football player on the terms of a personal contract. Barcelona is conducting direct and official negotiations with Newcastle to finalize the transfer in a short time.
According to reports, Barcelona intends to close this transfer within a week. The club wants to prevent the intervention of English Premier League representatives and the German football club Bayern Munich.
Gordon has attracted attention as one of Newcastle's main attacking weapons in the 2025/2026 season. The member of the England national team was particularly remembered for his brilliant performance against Qarabag in the Champions League play-off stage. He scored four goals in the away game against the Aghdam representative. Newcastle defeated Qarabag 6:1 in that match.
It is reported that Barcelona has prepared an offer for Gordon in the range of approximately 70-80 million euros (140-160 million AZN).
It should be noted that Gordon's speed, one-on-one game on the wing and ability to play in various positions of the attacking line are considered to be in line with the plans of Barcelona's head coach Hans-Dieter Flick.

Spanish club Barcelona is considering Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon to strengthen their attacking line in the summer transfer window.
Idman.Biz reports that the Catalan club's interest in the 25-year-old football player is widely discussed in the European media.
It was previously reported that Barcelona was interested in Atletico striker Julian Alvarez, but it is emphasized that this transfer is quite difficult from a financial point of view. Against this background, Gordon was also included in the list of possible targets of the Catalans.
According to several sources, Barcelona's sporting director Deco is currently in England and is investigating the transfer opportunities of the Newcastle football player.
It is reported that the football player himself is open to the option of moving to the Spanish club. However, it is not yet noted that a full agreement has been reached between the parties.
Let us remind you that Gordon scored four goals against Qarabag in the first match held in Baku as part of the UEFA Champions League play-off stage, and was remembered for his poker.
