Deco and Bojan Explore Multiple Attacking Targets in England
Key representatives of Barcelona's sporting department had recently travelled to London for accelerating the discussions to sign João Pedro from Chelsea.
According to the latest report from Mundo Deportivo, in the London trip, Barcelona officials, including Deco and Bojan Krkić, have also held discussions for a move to sign English forward Anthony Gordon from Newcastle United.
Liverpool and Bayern Face Competition as Barcelona Enter the Race
Antony Gordon is the major target of Liverpool and Bayern Munich to boost their squad for next season, and Gordon prioritised those two clubs for a move, but as per the report, after meeting with Barcelona officials, Gordon's camp has a leaning towards Barcelona, which Barca will try to capitalise on in the summer window.
## €80M Price Tag Emerges as Barcelona’s Biggest Obstacle
The English winger has a contract until 2030 with Newcastle United, and the asking price from the Magpies will be approximately €80 million, which exceeds Barcelona's transfer budget for a winger in the summer; however, the player's salary could easily fit in the books of Barca, so the Catalans will keep trying for the player despite competition.
Versatility, Pace and Physicality Make Gordon a Priority Option
The player has handled the left wing and striker roles at Newcastle United and scored 17 goals and assisted 5 times in 46 matches this season.
Physicality and pace are the two key strengths of Gordon, which make him a valuable asset for every team. The preference of Gordon will be important in this saga, as the player has already decided to leave Newcastle by the end of the season.
