Anthony Gordon tops Bayern’s wishlist as multiple European giants circle Newcastle’s rising stars.
Bayern Munich have made Anthony Gordon a top transfer priority, with the Newcastle United winger valued at around €60 million. Reports suggest Bayern have already held talks with the 25-year-old's representatives, identifying him as their preferred option to compete with Luis Díaz for a starting role under Vincent Kompany. While Barcelona and Arsenal have also been linked, Newcastle are keen to retain the England international.
Interest is also growing in Newcastle midfielder Lewis Miley, with Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea all monitoring the 19-year-old. Despite the attention, Newcastle view Miley as a key part of their long-term project, particularly amid ongoing speculation surrounding players such as Bruno Guimarães, Sandro Tonali, Tino Livramento and Nick Woltemade.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid are among the select clubs able to activate a €50-60 million release clause in the new contract of Nico Schlotterbeck at Borussia Dortmund. The Germany international has signed a deal running until 2031, reportedly earning around €14 million annually, placing him among Dortmund's top earners.
Bayern are also tracking Christian Kofane, a striker from Bayer Leverkusen, though they face competition from Arsenal. The German champions are expected to sign a backup forward to support Harry Kane, with Fisnik Asllani of Hoffenheim also under consideration. However, Bayern's immediate priorities remain strengthening at left wing and right back before adding a striker.
Elsewhere, Liverpool and Manchester United have been scouting RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande and left-back David Raum. United are seeking competition for Luke Shaw, while Liverpool are planning for the possible departure of Andy Robertson.
