Bayern have been widely credited with an interest in him this week, but Newcastle have scoffed at suggestions they would entertain bids of between £55-60m.

That was the valuation circulated in German media reports, although the asking price for the England international is likely to exceed £80m [@LukeEdwardsTele @TeleFootball] The last time we heard that Bayern Munich was deadly serious about procuring English talent, the Bavarians took strong runs at both Harry Kane and Declan Rice. While it is debatable on whether or not Rice every really considered Bayern Munich (it was reported that his choice came down to Arsenal and the Bavarians), Kane did make the jump. If Bayern Munich truly wants Gordon, they will go strong after him.

From there, it will just depend on whether or not he wants the move and if Newcastle United will accept Bayern Munich’s bid. Shocker! Bayern not interested in Foden (Sport Bild’s Christian Falk) Speaking of Bayern Munich’s rumored interest in English lads (shout out BFW Throwback #EnglishTomAdams), the stories linking the Bavarians to Manchester City’s Phil Foden are not true per Sport Bild’s Christian Falk: ❌ It is NOT TRUE: Bayern Munich are looking at Phil Foden ahead of the summer.

He’s a very interesting name, of course! But, Bayern Munich aren’t looking for a player like him; a player who’s expensive and who’d want to play every game. Bayern are searching for a backup for the left wing position behind Luis Diaz.
