Line Bayern Won't Cross in Anthony Gordon Talks Amid Plan for Newcastle Star
Bayern view Anthony Gordon as a versatile attacking option, but Newcastle want up to £80 million and see him as an England starter.
- On Wednesday, Newcastle United forward Anthony Gordon reportedly agreed personal terms with Bayern Munich, accelerating his potential summer transfer to the Bundesliga champions.
- A valuation gap remains central to negotiations, as Newcastle seeks £75-80 million for the 25-year-old they signed for £40 million three-and-a-half years ago, while Bayern Munich values him closer to £60 million.
- Bayern Munich reporter Heiko Niederrer noted the club values Gordon's versatility, explaining 'he can play striker, he can play number 10, he can play wing,' having played across Newcastle's front three this season.
- Inside the Allianz Arena, Bayern officials debate whether Gordon will start enough games to justify breaking their 'internal line' on transfer fees and wages, as the club prefers spending heavily only on elite players like Harry Kane.
- Bayern typically reserves major spending for elite players, willing to pay £100 million for someone like Harry Kane 'once every two or three years,' and prefers not to invest heavily in bench players.
