One of the most expensive transfers so far this winter is fixed: Anthony Gordon leaves training club Everton and joins Newcastle United. The services of the winger, who was originally tied until 2025, are said to be due for a fee of £40m, the equivalent of around EUR 45.6m, plus a further £5m (EUR 5.7m). ) can be added to bonuses. Only for the signing of Mykhaylo Mudryk has Chelsea spent more money this January.
The nouveau riche Newcastle has so far only invested more in the purchase of Alexander Isak, while Everton have made more in their club history with the departure of three other players. Including Gordon, the Magpies’ spending this winter rose to €45.95m, making them the club’s third-biggest spenders. How long the 21-year-old was bound was not disclosed, but it was “long-term”.

“Ever since I heard about the interest, I’ve always been convinced that Newcastle are the right club for me. I think the fans and the city suit me, the way the team plays under the new manager suits me and the club seems to be on the right track,” said Gordon. “I feel like it’s a really big step. People haven’t seen what I’m capable of. I think that under the coach and the way the club is developing I can really achieve something here.”
