Bayern Munich has identified its primary targets for the upcoming summer transfer window. Newcastle forward Anthony Gordon is being viewed as the most suitable option for the German giants. Goal.com reports on this.
Since the transfer of Yan Diomande, who was previously at the top of the Munich club's list, could prove too expensive, the club's management has turned its attention to the English footballer.
Newcastle is ready to release its top scorer for at least 80 million euros. The club needs to raise funds to comply with financial fair play regulations.
Gordon himself considers a move to Munich a logical step in his career and has been observing Michael Olise's rapid adaptation to the new team.
For Leipzig representative Yan Diomande, the German club is demanding no less than 100 million euros. Teams such as Liverpool and PSG have also shown interest in the 19-year-old Ivorian talent.
However, Red Bull chief Oliver Mintzlaff stated that there is no intention to sell the young star next summer and that he should remain with the team for another season.
Anthony Gordon's versatility is attracting Bayern's coaching staff. He could provide competition for Luis Diaz on the left wing, support Harry Kane in attack, or operate in the number ten position.
Newcastle's failure to qualify for European competitions also increases the likelihood of this transfer taking place.
