English forward Anthony Gordon has shared how excited he is to join FC Barcelona after sealing a big move from English Premier League side Newcastle United to the Spanish League Champions.
Gordon signed to join Barcelona on a five year deal worth €70 million that could rise to over €80 million in add-ons with Barcelona securing the services of the highly sought after English player who has been included in Thomas Tuchel’s squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
England will play against Ghana, Croatia and Panama in Group L at the group stage of the competition.
Speaking to reporters at his unveiling, Gordon spoke fluent Spanish and talked about what joining the club meant to him.

“This is the biggest club on the planet. It’s the stuff I dreamed of as a child. It really is a dream come true to be here. I know it comes with a lot of responsibility, but like I said, I’m ready for this kind of challenge, ready for that responsibility.”


“I have a [Spanish] physio in Newcastle and we spoke every day and I told him one day I’ll play for Barça, so I want to learn Spanish. So that’s how I speak some. To play with Lamine and the rest of the players is very exciting for me.”

“I think the more players with quality you have around you, the better you’re going to be. These players are at the very top level for a reason. They’re the best players in the world” Gordon said.
