FC Barcelona officially announced the signing of Anthony Gordon this Friday. The English winger formally becomes a new Barça player, bringing a strategic deal to completion that strengthens the club’s sporting project for the coming seasons.
After arriving in Barcelona yesterday afternoon, the attacker successfully passed his medical examinations before having dinner with Deco and Bojan Krkic to seal the agreement. The player’s schedule gets underway today, as from 1:30 p.m. he will give his first official press conference as a Barça player.
The deal has been completed for a fixed transfer fee of 70 million euros plus add-ons. Gordon has signed a long-term contract that will keep him at the Catalan club until 2031, showing the board’s huge commitment to his talent and future potential.
From a financial standpoint, the British international will now earn a weekly salary of 346,000 euros, equivalent to around 17.5 million euros gross per season. This exactly doubles his wages at Newcastle United and places him at the very top of the squad’s pay scale.
With this move, Barcelona add pace, dribbling ability, and goals to their attack. Barça fans are already eagerly awaiting the player’s first words to the media on this historic day for the club.
