With long-term plans in mind, both Arsenal and Liverpool are now watching closely, waiting for the right moment to make their move.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-race-begins-for-salah-s-successor\">Race begins for Salah\u2019s Successor<\/h2>\n<p>Arsenal have entered a growing transfer battle with Liverpool for a young winger who is already being seen as a possible successor to Mohamed Salah. The interest comes at a key time, as Liverpool prepare for life after their star forward, who has confirmed he will leave in 2026. The player attracting attention is Newcastle United\u2019s Anthony Gordon. Reports suggest Arsenal are willing to spend big, with a deal potentially reaching around \u20ac95 million.<\/p>\n<p>However, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goal.com\/en-sa\/lists\/arsenal-are-in-a-race-with-liverpool-for-salah-s-successor\/bltef8fb210e12cce8a\">according to sources<\/a>Newcastle are not very keen to sell him. Gordon is viewed as a key player, and the club would only consider a move if financial pressure forces them to rethink their plans. This is the set up to a very tense situation. Both the Premier League giants, Arsenal and Liverpool are watching him closely as the summer transfer window approaches.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More : PSG make latest move for Gabriel Martinelli amid exit twist.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-is-anthony-gordon-is-so-highly-rated\">Why is Anthony Gordon is so highly rated<\/h2>\n<p>Anthony Gordon has developed quickly into one of the most exciting wide players in the <strong>Premier League<\/strong>. His has a unique style, his pace and ability to take on defenders make him a constant threat. He is also known for his very high work rate. Unlike many attacking players, Anthony Gordon also contributes defensively. This makes him very valuable in modern football systems.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-197187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Arsenal-2.webp 1200w, https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Arsenal-2-600x338.webp 600w, https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Arsenal-2-768x432.webp 768w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Arsenal-2.webp\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Arsenal-2.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-197187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Arsenal-2.webp 1200w, https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Arsenal-2-600x338.webp 600w, https:\/\/sixsports.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Arsenal-2-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>This is one of the reasons why he fits well into Mikel Arteta\u2019s style at Arsenal. Arteta\u2019s style of <strong>football<\/strong> required high work rate players to run up and down the pitch. He needs them to run to aid both the attack and defence. Another key factor is his age. Still young, he has plenty of time to improve further. Clubs are not just looking at what he can do now, but what he could become in the future.<\/p>\n<p>For Liverpool, the interest is very clear. Replacing a player, an absolute legend like Mo Salah is not going to be easy. Right now, they need someone who can score, create, and handle pressure in big games. Gordon\u2019s profile matches many of those demands. At the same time, Arsenal see him as a long-term investment. Adding a player like him would strengthen their attack and provide more options alongside players like Bukayo Saka.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-anthony-gordon-will-offer-at-arsenal\">What Anthony Gordon will offer at Arsenal?<\/h2>\n<p>For <strong>the Gunners<\/strong>this situation sheds a light to their ambition. They are competing for a top talent. This shows that they are serious about building a team capable of winning trophies. However, the deal will not be simple. He has a high transfer fee, which is a major factor. Amid that Newcastle has a reluctance to sell, this makes negotiations even harder.<\/p>\n<p>There is also competition. Liverpool may have an emotional advantage, as they are directly looking for a replacement for Salah. That role could be very attractive to any attacking player. At the same time, the Gunners are offering a different kind of project. Under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.com\/mikel-arteta\/profil\/trainer\/47620\">Mikel Arteta<\/a>the club has focused on building a young squad. A player like Anthony Gordon could become an important part of that system.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read Next : Arsenal transfer latest: Romano reveals truth behind Tresoldi links<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Timing will be key, if Newcastle face financial pressure, the situation could change quickly.
