Newcastle's star winger open to accepting a long-term contract at the club
- The Magpies club has been preparing a renewal offer for Star winger Anthony Gordon.
- Newcastle's wing forward Gordon is open to accepting a long-term contract at the club.
It has been much known that Newcastle's summer transfer window was a total disaster. Losing on key reinforcements, Marc Guehi for the center-back role and Anthony Elanga for their right wing, the club couldn't capitalize much that was expected, at least from them. However, even after such a cold signing window, the Magpies club actually did a great job in securing their star players at the club.

Not to forget, many Newcastle stars, Anthony Gordon, Alexander Isak, and Bruno Guimaraes, had been on the radar of the European Giants; however, much activeness from the club's entourage has kept them all at the club. Although both Isak and club captain Guimaraes have a contract till 2028, Gordon would have his Newcastle contract end in 2026.
Addressing the same, considering the English winger's utility in the Magpies club, they have been preparing a new renewal offer for the 23-year-old star. According to reports, the Magpies club is willing to offer him a lucrative deal, one that could make him the club's highest earner, even passing Club Captain Guimaraes.
Considering Gordon's effectiveness in the club's frontline, the Magpies club is to offer him a long-term contract, securing his services for years to come. Moreover, what has been extremely positive in Newcastle's respect is that sources indicate that the player himself is much more open to accepting a new contract at the club.
An HITC Football insider had this to say about the player's contract talks:
"“Talks are ongoing and have accelerated over the last week or so, from what I am hearing. Gordon is open to signing a new deal and will be offered a big pay raise. It’s progressing.”"

Analyzing from Newcastle's perspective, Gordon's contract renewal could be significant for them, given his past heroics at St. James Park. Although the wing forward has been facing a bit of issues switching up to the right flank, significant chances are he would pick up the pace soon. Overall, Gordon's positive response to a contract renewal would be beneficial for the club, given the winger's talent and value addition to the club's frontline.
