"Anthony Gordon has 10 Champions League goals in eight games this season, the most of any Premier League player in the competition. Despite poor form domestically, with five goals involvements in 22 Premier League games, the Newcastle attacker has picked his moments to secure his team their spot in the Champions League knockout stage."
"Gordon, naturally a winger but being played in the centre-forward role on occasion this season, could act as a replacement for both players if they were to depart from Arsenal in the summer, or add to Arteta's growing attacking depth if both stay."
"According to a report from TEAMtalk, there is mounting interest in the England international from Liverpool and Manchester United, but Arsenal are currently leading the race. Mikel Arteta, said to be a long-time admirer of the forward, has reportedly approved a staggering 75 million bid for Gordon although Newcastle could hold out for closer to 100m."
Arsenal have emerged as favorites to acquire Newcastle forward Anthony Gordon, with manager Mikel Arteta reportedly approving a £75 million bid, though Newcastle may demand closer to £100 million. Gordon has excelled in the Champions League with 10 goals in eight games this season, the most of any Premier League player in the competition, despite limited domestic form with five goal involvements in 22 Premier League matches. Liverpool and Manchester United are also pursuing the England international. Gordon could serve as a replacement for potentially departing Arsenal players Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard, or strengthen Arteta's attacking depth if both remain. The winger-turned-occasional-centre-forward represents a strategic addition to Arsenal's squad.
