according to Football transfersNewcastle United winger Anthony Gordon has signed a new contract at St James’ Park.
The England international faced an uncertain future at the club after being linked with a move to Liverpool during the summer transfer window.
Gordon has now put pen to paper on a new deal at Newcastle, according to the report, dismissing rumors about his future.
The former Everton star was offered to Liverpool in the summer transfer window by Newcastle as they looked to tackle profit and sustainability rules.
The Magpies offered Gordon to Liverpool and were keen to sign Joe Gomez from the Merseyside club.
However, with the sales of Yankuba Minteh and Elliot Anderson, the Magpies resolved their financial problems and later decided to keep Gordon at the club.
This led to claims that the player has had his head turned by interest from the Premier League giants.
Along with Liverpool, both Manchester United and Chelsea have shown interest in the fast-paced winger, who was Newcastle’s player of the season in 2023-24.
Liverpool were willing to let it go Luis Díaz leaves the club to bring Gordon to Anfield.
Their decision to keep Diaz ultimately proved right in the end, with the Colombian left-winger showing good form to start the season.
Newcastle United were desperate to keep Anthony Gordon
Eddie Howe is said to be delighted with the decision to keep Gordon at the club, a deal that has made the England international the club’s highest-paid player.
After scoring 11 goals in the Premier League last season and registering 10 assists, Gordon has started this season slowly with just two goals in seven games.
His contribution has kept Newcastle in the top half of the Premier League table with Howe’s side above Tottenham and Manchester United in the standings at the moment.
