The Magpies famously added a 100 million release clause in Bruno Guimaraes' last contract and according to iNews, Gordon has a similar contract in his contract which he signed last year. The England international was linked with a move away from St. James' Park last year with the club struggling with Profit and Sustainability Rules. Gordon, the former Everton star, was linked with a move to Liverpool. However, with the sales of Elliot Anderson and Yankubah Minteh, Eddie Howe's team sorted out their financial issues.

At this level, you see the squad changing all the time, players coming in, players leaving. I think you've almost got to be a bit paranoid that you're not going to get in because it pushes you even further. You've always got to challenge yourself because the lads you're competing with are always at the highest level because that's the level we're playing at.

Newcastle United have been given a major boost as Anthony Gordon can play in tomorrow night's Champions League game against Barcelona. The England international has been suspended for recent matches due to the red card he picked up in the defeat to Liverpool at St James' Park. Thankfully, however, Newcastle will be able to field Gordon in the Champions League as his suspension isn't valid for European competition.
