According to reports, the Catalan giants moved quickly to finalize negotiations for the England international, who had also attracted strong interest from Bayern Munich and Liverpool.
The deal is now reportedly close to completion, with Anthony Gordon expected to undergo his medical later this week.
Barcelona Move Fast in the Transfer Market
Barcelona accelerated discussions in recent days as the club pushed to secure one of the Premier League’s most explosive attacking players before rival clubs could intensify negotiations.
Anthony Gordon has become one of Newcastle United’s key attacking figures thanks to his pace, intensity and direct style of play. His performances in the Premier League have significantly increased his market value over the past seasons.

Despite interest from Bayern Munich and Liverpool, Barcelona appear to have moved fastest to secure the player.
Medical Expected Soon
