Bayern Munich interested in Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon

Bayern Munich is reportedly pursuing 25-year-old Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon. Manager Vincent Kompany is seeking a backup and competitor for the left-wing position currently held by Luis Diaz. According to reports from Sky Sports and journalist Florian Plettenberg, negotiations have reached an advanced stage, with the player already informed of the interest. Gordon joined Newcastle in 2023 for 46 million euros, having previously played for Everton. Throughout his career, he has recorded 152 appearances with 39 goals and 28 assists, in addition to 17 caps for the England national team. While Bayern views him as an ideal reinforcement due to his versatility and speed, the clubs have not yet reached a formal agreement. Some reports claim Luis Diaz is an established starter with 23 goals and 18 assists in 41 games, necessitating a reliable secondary option.
