Anthony Gordon: Newcastle winger signs new long-term contract to end speculation of move away

Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon has signed a new long-term contract to end any uncertainty over a possible move away from St James' Park.

Signed from Everton in January 2023, the 23-year-old - who was linked with Liverpool over the summer - has become a key part of Eddie Howe's squad, scoring 15 goals and claiming 11 assists in 74 appearances.

Speaking about his renewed commitment, Gordon said: "I just think the club's in a great place. Since the takeover it's just been up and up. Me and the gaffer are a perfect match in terms of style of play. I love it here.

"I'm very happy here, I like living here, the team is very suited to me - and I'm here to win a trophy. The short story is we need to win a trophy.

"Winning a trophy here would be unbelievable because the fans have waited so long. To be part of that team who finally does it is a massive goal of mine."
