🚨 He’s on a huge wage! Barça confirm Gordon’s €80m transfer | OneFootball

FC Bayern are said to have been involved in a transfer battle with FC Barcelona and apparently came out second best in the end. Anthony Gordon is not heading to Munich, but to Spain instead. The Catalans made the signing official on Friday evening. 

As reported by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, among others, Barça are paying €70 million to Newcastle, with bonuses potentially taking the total up to €80 million. According to Newcastle-based local newspaper The Chronicle, Gordon himself will also receive a massive salary. Converted, he will earn €346,000 per week going forward, which would amount to an annual salary of around €18 million.

The left winger contributed 17 goals and five assists in 46 competitive appearances for Newcastle United last season. He was still under contract with the Premier League club until 2030, but has now signed with Barcelona until 2031. 

Just let that sink in: with the transfer fee, bonuses, and salary combined, the Catalans are supposedly investing around €170 million (!) in Gordon.
