Manchester City is interested in signing Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon, with sources indicating that the club admires the player’s talents alongside several other Premier League clubs. However, Manchester City’s main focus remains on recruiting a midfielder, with Bruno Guimaraes being a prime target as uncertainties linger over the futures of Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne, and Kalvin Phillips.
David Ornstein of The Athletic revealed that Liverpool, among other clubs, also like Gordon but are unlikely to pursue a deal as Newcastle has no intention of letting him go. Gordon recently joined Newcastle on a lucrative deal stemming from the club’s Saudi-led takeover, making any potential transfer fee for him astronomical.
Despite Manchester City’s interest in Gordon, a move this summer is unlikely due to the high transfer fee involved. While the club recently signed Jeremy Doku as a wide player, they are open to adding more reinforcements in that position as they continue to scout for potential future recruits in the market.
