Arsenal is "accelerating" the amazing move of Newcastle star Anthony Gordon

Newcastle United's Sandro Tonali and Anthony Gordon.

Arsenal is reportedly "accelerating" the amazing moves of Newcastle star Anthony Gordon, and the Magpie "may have to accept" a suitable offer for the England international.

It has been reported that Andrea Berta will spend £300 million to sign a new player for Mikel Arteta, who will spend his busy first summer as Arsenal's new sporting director.

The Italian player has allegedly initiated a £51 million termination clause to reach a deal with Real Sociedad Martin Zubimendi, but Xavi Alonso's joining Real Madrid may still hinder the deal.

A new striker is also a top priority for the team, but Berta is also considering the left wing option, as a replacement or replacement for Gabriel Martinelli, with news that they may hear a offer for the Brazilian player.

They are still interested in Athletic Bilbao's Nico Williams, but Football Insider claims that the Gunners are also "accelerating the introduction" of Gordon.

Back in March, there was news that Liverpool was considering bringing in the 24-year-old, and “Arne Slott is well aware of Gordon’s style of play and versatility”.

But former Manchester United scout Mick Brown claims the Gunners have been "focusing on his situation" and may take advantage of Newcastle's "financial situation".

"Arsenal is seeking to strengthen the wing attack," Brown told Football Insider.

"We've talked about Martinelli, if he leaves, they want to bring in a better player than him, and they've followed several people. One of the players they're interested in is Anthony Gordon."

"They have been following him, closely watching his situation in case he has a chance to join. Newcastle United has some uncertainty about their prospects due to their financial situation."

If Newcastle can offer him a high price, they might have to accept it. Arsenal then must decide whether the funds needed to bring in him are worth the value he brings to the team and whether he is suitable for the position.

"But he is still young, they pay attention to him for a reason."

Gordon transferred from Sporting Lisbon to Emirates Stadium for £60 million, and negotiations have made "progress" and Gordon may provide Victor Giocres with crosses next season at Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal allegedly "has entered a later stage in negotiations with Giocres and provided him with a five-year contract worth about £9 million per year", which is equivalent to about £170,000 per week.

reported that Arsenal "lead the Premier League opponent in this transfer battle", but "Manchester United are also preparing to bid for Giocres, and they also contacted Liverpool to find a replacement for Darwin Nunes."
