🚨 Bureaucratic red tape! Anthony Gordon announcement delayed | OneFootball

The signing of Anthony Gordon by FC Barcelona will have to wait a few more hours before becoming official.

Although the agreement between the Blaugrana club and Newcastle United is fully finalized for a fee close to 70 million euros plus add-ons, some unexpected bureaucratic loose ends have delayed the final confirmation of the deal.

Sources at Spotify Camp Nou say that the English forward is already in the Catalan capital and has successfully passed the relevant medical tests.

However, the exchange of contractual documentation between the offices of both clubs has slowed down a process that Barça fans had been eagerly awaiting for today.

The 25-year-old winger will sign a five-season contract, tying him to the Barcelona club until June 2031.

From the sporting management led by Deco, there is complete calm, insisting that this administrative setback does not in any way jeopardize the arrival of the talented British attacker.
