Bayern Munich make progress to sign Anthony Gordon, Arsenal and Liverpool shocked | OneFootball

Bayern Munich appear to be stepping up their pursuit of Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon, with manager Vincent Kompany reportedly giving his approval for the club to move forward with plans to sign the England international this summer. According to journalist Florian Plettenberg, communication between Gordon’s representatives and Bayern has been ongoing for several months, suggesting that this potential move has been quietly developing behind the scenes.

With Bayern expected to reshape parts of their attacking unit ahead of the new season, Gordon has emerged as one of the standout options under consideration.

Meanwhile, Newcastle could be open to significant offers as they look to refresh their squad and balance finances in preparation for the next stage of their project.

Gordon has been impressive for Newastle United

Gordon has enjoyed one of the most productive seasons of his career, featuring 46 times across all competitions, scoring 17 goals, and providing five assists.

Those numbers highlight his growing influence at Newcastle, where he has developed into a key attacking threat capable of stretching defenses and delivering decisive moments.

Gordon’s style of play makes him an attractive option for Bayern Munich. He is known for his pace, relentless pressing and ability to attack defenders directly.

Kompany, who favors dynamic wide players capable of contributing both offensively and defensively, is believed to see Gordon as a player who could bring energy and unpredictability to Bayern’s forward line.

Newcastle are evaluating ways to reshape their squad, and selling a high-value player like Gordon could generate the kind of funds needed to strengthen multiple positions.

Bayern are not the only club monitoring Gordon’s availability. Interest from other Premier League sides remains strong, with several teams reportedly exploring attacking reinforcements.

Both Arsenal and Liverpool and have been constantly linked with a move for the Newcastle United attacker as both Premier League clubs are expected to invest heavily in their attack this summer.

Fabrizio Romano recently reported that there are ‘serious chances’ for Gordon to leave Newcastle this summer which is a major boost to the clubs targeting the England international.

The race to sign Gordon is going to be intense this summer.
