Anthony Gordon: £40m footballer. Never stop following your dreams.
It was widely reported that Gordon had skipped Everton training on a number of occasions this week to try and push the move through, but this is the first confirmation of a formal transfer request.
On their website, Newcastle quoted manager Eddie Howe as saying: “I’m delighted to sign Anthony – he’s a top, top talent. “I’m really excited to work with him, to develop him, and I’m looking forward to seeing what he can do in a Newcastle shirt.”In part explaining the lengths he went to while trying to leave Goodison Park, Gordon told NUFC TV: “Since I heard of the interest, I was always convinced Newcastle were for me.
“I think the fan base and the city really suits me as a person, the way the team are playing under the gaffer at the minute really suits me, and the club just look like they’re heading in the right direction. “I feel like it’s a really big step. People haven’t seen what I’m capable of yet. I think under the gaffer, and the way the club’s going, I can really excel here.”
