Bayern Step Up Pursuit of Newcastle’s Anthony Gordon as Talks Turn to Player Side

Newcastle’s high asking price has Bayern courting the player before bidding.

Overview

  • Reports from Germany say Gordon’s agent held talks in Munich as Bayern explored personal terms.
  • Bayern plan to lock in the winger’s approval before opening formal negotiations with Newcastle.
  • Newcastle are seeking around £75m to €86m for Gordon, a price Bayern are reluctant to meet.
  • There has been no club-to-club contact reported yet, which signals an early focus on the player side.
  • A large fee could hand Everton a sell-on windfall reported at up to 15%, worth about £12m at £80m.
