FC Barcelona completed the signing of English attacker Anthony Gordon from Newcastle United for a fee of 70 million euros, with potential bonuses of 10 million euros. The deal, managed by sporting director Deco and approved by manager Hansi Flick, resulted in a contract running until 2031. Following his arrival, Gordon has established himself as a key player for the club. During a match against Rayo Vallecano, he played as a left winger and was instrumental in the team's offensive play, contributing to a goal by winning a ball in the channel between defenders to assist Raphinha. His performance earned a standing ovation from the Camp Nou crowd. Negotiations for the transfer were reportedly managed discreetly by Deco, who made trips to London to secure the player despite interest from clubs such as Liverpool. Before finalizing the deal, Barcelona had explored other midfield options, including Javi Guerra from Valencia CF, before focusing on major signings like Rodri. Gordon has since commented on his transition to La Liga, noting the shift from the “high-intensity physical style of English football to the tactical and technical demands of the Spanish league.”
