Anthony Gordon continues to be linked with a move away from Newcastle United.

Newcastle United will reportedly demand £75million for Anthony Gordon this summer.

The England international has been the subject of intense transfer speculation in recent weeks, heightened by his absence for Newcastle United’s Premier League defeat to AFC Bournemouth on Saturday.

Before the game, Magpies’ head coach Eddie Howe was asked about the growing interest in Gordon and in his answer said he wouldn’t field players who weren’t 100% committed to the club.

Eddie Howe rubbishes Anthony Gordon conspiracy

As a result, Howe was forced to rubbish any conspiracy surrounding Gordon, insisting his absence was injury-related.

“Absolutely,” Howe said, “Today was an injury. He went for a scan on, I think it was Thursday morning, and it was clear he had an injury that would take him out of the game.”

On whether he would return for this Saturday’s trip to Premier League leaders Arsenal, Howe replied: “We're unclear. I don't think it's a long-term injury, whether he makes it next week, I don't know. We'll have to see how he goes this week in training.”

Newcastle United willing to sell Anthony Gordon - player open to the move

In the days after the Bournemouth defeat, there have been more reports on Gordon’s future.

Sky Sport Switzerland claims Gordon has told those close to him that he is indeed open to joining Bayern, with the German giants planning to meet with the winger’s agent to discuss personal terms ahead of a potential transfer.

Newcastle have previously been dead against selling their star players but that stance has softened ahead of the summer as they recognise trading is necessary in order to stay compliant with Premier League and UEFA financial rules.

With that in mind, The Times reports that the Magpies are willing to sell Gordon, if their £75m valuation is met.

There is also interest from Arsenal and Liverpool, who Gordon almost joined two summers ago when United risked breaching Premier League Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR). Elliot Anderson and Yankuba Minteh departed for Nottingham Forest and Brighton, respectively, instead.

Gordon was rewarded with a new contract months later, which doesn’t expire until 2030.
