It is believed that the Gunners are eyeing a move to bring the English wide player to the Emirates Stadium this summer.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Gordon\u2019s Impressive Form In English Football<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Gordon has enjoyed a decent run of form at the Tyneside club after he put in a series of impressive displays for them in the final third. The 25-year-old has banged in 17 goals and earned five assists in 45 matches for Newcastle this season across all fronts.<\/p>\n<p>The English wing wizard is currently one of the best players in his position in the Premier League. Hence, it is no surprise that the Gunners have set their sights on him this summer.<\/p>\n<p>His current contract at St. James\u2019 Park will run out in the summer of 2030, which could make it difficult for Arsenal to sign him on the cheap later this year.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_348259\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-348259\" style=\"width: 2560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-lazyloaded=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-348259\" src=\"http:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Arsenal\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-1260x840.jpg 1260w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-1392x928.jpg 1392w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/england-v-japan-international-friendly-5-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-348259\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">LONDON, ENGLAND \u2013 MARCH 31: Anthony Gordon of England looks on during the international friendly match between England and Japan at Wembley Stadium on March 31, 2026 in London, England. (Photo by Mike Hewitt\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>Will Gordon Be A Good Option For Arsenal?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Gordon can use his pace well to get in behind the opponent\u2019s backline and is a good dribbler with the ball at his feet. He has got the vision to engineer some inviting chances for his teammates to find the back of the net.<\/p>\n<p>The Liverpool-born sensation can chip in by scoring and creating his fair share of goals from the wide areas. Gordon is primarily a left-winger but can also function as a right-sided wide player or as a centre-forward if needed. He is already quite familiar with the Premier League and won\u2019t take much time to adjust to life at the North London club.<\/p>\n<p>We can expect Gordon to add more firepower to Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta\u2019s attack. He has what it takes to fight for a regular first-team spot at the Emirates Stadium next season.<\/p>\n<p>At 25, Gordon has his peak years ahead of him, which makes him a decent option for the Gunners to consider at the end of this campaign. He might even help Arsenal challenge for some major honours over the next few years. With all things considered, Arteta should focus on going all out to bring him on board in the upcoming transfer window.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent reportjournalist Steve Kay mentioned that Arsenal are prepared to launch a move<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":943,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-942","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-arsenal"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/disport.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/942","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/disport.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/disport.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/disport.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/disport.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=942"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/disport.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/942\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/disport.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/943"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/disport.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=942"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/disport.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=942"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/disport.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=942"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
