"Newcastle could be in a tricky position with Gordon. It seems like he wants to join Bayern Munich and they're happy to let him go, but their asking price at the moment is going to be high. The problem is, if Bayern don't want to meet that asking price, but Gordon wants to make that move and isn't interesting in looking elsewhere, it might have to change."
"A lot could depend on who else is interested, if someone like Liverpool wants to make a move then that asking price is more likely to be met. But if Bayern know they're the only contenders, Gordon wants to leave Newcastle, and Newcastle want to sell, then it puts them in a difficult spot. They might have to accept an offer below the asking price, or ultimately he could stay, but then they might be left with an unhappy player."
"Anthony Gordon could be allowed to leave Newcastle United for a cut-price fee this summer as he continues to eye a move to Bayern Munich. The Magpies are currently believed to be holding out for a fee of around £75million for the 25-year-old, but that price may be more than Bayern are willing to spend."
"Brown told Football Insider on 4 May that Bayern Munich is Gordon's preferred destination, and he is currently prioritising a move to join the Bundesliga champions. After they struggled for attacking threat against a resolute PSG back-line as they exited the Champions League, they may now be tempted to step up their chase. However, the eventual price tag could come down between now and when he makes the move, despite Newcastle being in a strong position due to his contract."
Newcastle United may consider allowing Anthony Gordon to leave for a reduced fee as he targets a move to Bayern Munich. Newcastle are believed to want about £75 million for the 25-year-old, but Bayern may be unwilling to pay that amount. Interest from other clubs such as Liverpool and Chelsea could raise the likelihood of Newcastle receiving their asking price. If Bayern are the only serious contenders and Gordon wants to leave without looking elsewhere, Newcastle could face a difficult decision. They may accept an offer below the asking price or risk keeping an unhappy player if no agreement is reached.
