Anthony Gordon
24-Year-Old
Newcastle United
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Gordon didn't live up to the expectation he set for himself after tallying 11 goals and 10 assists the prior season. He managed six goals and five assists with a split role on set pieces in 2024/25, but an injury derailed his campaign and he didn't have a goal or assist from February on. When healthy, Gordon has production in him, but with Champions League on the slate this season, there's a chance for more rotation in league play, especially after Harvey Barnes produced in Gordon's absence. Still, this Newcastle attack is potent and anyone in the front three has value in fantasy, especially Gordon with set pieces.
Relative decline post-Euros
Gordon logged 34 appearances (28 starts) with six goals and five assists on 59 shots (19 on goal), 131 crosses (31 accurate), 53 corners and 51 chances created during Newcastle United's 2024-25 season.
ANALYSIS
When comparing both of Gordon's last two seasons, his later campaign includes more accurate crosses and corners. Though they suggest more assists inbound, it was the opposite that came to fruition. That also goes for Gordon's overall G/A, which went down double digits from 21 to 11. As a young Englishman filling one of Newcastle United's required non-international roster requirements, he should have another chance to bounce back, especially with the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching and an England team brimming with attacking players. Gordon still logged a double-digit G/A as well, so he is definitely capable of getting involved in much of Newcastle's offense.

Still not training with squad
Gordon (thigh) has yet to resume team training and isn't close to returning as he still suffers from the bad tackle he faced while on international duty with England, coach Eddie Howe said in a press conference, according to the Northern Echo. "Anthony wasn't close [to being available to face Leicester]. He hasn't been able to train with us yet. He's still feeling the effects of that tackle with England. We hope that we may see him soon, but I've got no certainty on that."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Target for Reds
Liverpool are considering a summer move for Gordon in case Luis Diaz leaves the club in the summer, according to Teamtalk.
ANALYSIS
Liverpool are not looking to sell the 28-year-old Colombian winger, but they haven't ruled out the possibility of doing so. If Diaz leaves, however, then the Reds would go all out to sign Gordon. The Newcastle winger endured lots of injury issues in 2024-25, but when healthy, he's one of the best wingers in the Premier League. He'd certainly be an interesting addition for Liverpool.
