In a major development, journalist Craig Hope of the Daily Mail reports that FC Barcelona have moved ahead of Bayern Munich in the race for Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon.
Direct talks are taking place between the Blaugrana and the Magpies over a deal for the winger, even as Bayern Munich as well as Liverpool continue to monitor the situation.
As per the report, Barcelona and Newcastle are already discussing the make-up of the deal, the total cost of which could reach £80 million (€92 million) including add-ons and bonuses.
Bayern Munich, despite being keen on signing Gordon, offer a lower valuation for the winger, whereas Liverpool are still only monitoring the player without having made any moves.

With Barça advancing negotiations, they have therefore overtaken the Bavarians in the race for the 25-year-old attacker, who finished the 2025/26 season with 17 goals and five assists from 46 games in all competitions.
Gordon, for his part, prefers a move abroad rather than continuing in England, and there has been a basic agreement with Bayern Munich over personal terms.
However, with Barça now moving forward in negotiations, reports in Spain suggest that he is prioritising a move to the Spotify Camp Nou.

Meanwhile, as reported earlier, Barcelona are fully on board with the idea of signing Gordon in the summer.
Indeed, there is consensus between manager Hansi Flick, president-elect Joan Laporta, and sporting director Deco, who was in England for negotiations, that the 25-year-old can be a quality addition to the team.
Primarily a left-winger, Gordon can operate as a centre-forward as well, and his signing could address two issues at once for the La Liga champions.
