Bayern Munich are reportedly preparing a move for Anthony Gordon as manager Vincent Kompany looks to strengthen his attacking options ahead of the new season.
The Newcastle winger is said to be a priority target after an impressive campaign that further established him as one of the Premier League’s most dangerous wide players. Bayern believe his pace, direct style, and versatility would add another dimension to their frontline.
Initial contact is believed to have taken place with Gordon’s representatives, with the Bundesliga champions viewing him as strong competition for players such as Luis Diaz and a valuable fit for Kompany’s high intensity approach.
The News Chronicle gathered that while Bayern’s interest is serious, Newcastle United are in no rush to sell. Gordon remains a central figure in the squad and is tied to a long term contract, placing the club in a strong position ahead of the transfer window.
Reports suggest any formal negotiations would likely require an offer of around £50 million before Newcastle consider talks. With no release clause in his deal, the final decision remains firmly in the hands of the English club.
As the summer market draws closer, Bayern are expected to keep monitoring the situation, though completing the move may depend on Newcastle’s willingness to negotiate.
