Arsenal leading race to sign Newcastle United star

Arsenal are leading the race to sign Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon during the summer transfer window, according to Teamtalk.

The Gunners are expected to strengthen their left wing department in the summer, and they have already been linked with many options.

Gordon is one of those, and reports claim that the Englishman has given the go-ahead to pursue a new challenge away from the Magpies.

Arsenal are closely monitoring his situation at the moment, and they are prepared to make a genuine push when the season concludes.

The Gunners could be prepared to spend around £75 million on the former Everton man. It may require a couple of exits to recoup funds.

Gabriel Jesus looks poised to depart at the end of the campaign.

One of Leandro Trossard or Gabriel Martinelli could likewise head for the exit door. The latter has been linked with Paris Saint-Germain.

Arsenal are also open to parting ways with Myles Lewis-Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri. They want a combined £100 million for the pairing.
