Anthony Gordon

Anthony Gordon of Barcelona was born in Liverpool, England on 24 February 2001 (age 25).

Anthony Gordon, born on 24 February 2001 (age 25), is an England left winger whose senior career has been shaped most clearly by Newcastle United. His early loan football gave him the harder minutes young wide players usually need, before Newcastle became the place where his game carried proper first-team weight.

Across four league seasons at Newcastle, Gordon made 111 league appearances and scored 24 goals. His strongest return came in 2023-2024, when he scored 11 times in 35 league matches, a useful reminder that his threat is not just built on running and noise. In 2025-2026 he remained a regular, with 26 league appearances and six goals.

He has also been involved with England this season, making one World Cup appearance and five appearances in European World Cup qualifying, scoring once. His market value is around £55.5m, according to Transfermarkt, which says enough about the level he has reached without requiring any great ceremony.

Gordon is now listed as a Barcelona player, but his senior record is still anchored in his Newcastle years: a wide forward who developed through loan football, became a regular Premier League attacker, and moved into the England picture from there.
