from NUFC:

Newcastle United are delighted to announce that Anthony Gordon has signed a new long-term contract at St. James' Park.

The 23-year-old joined the Magpies in January 2023 and has become a key part of Eddie Howe's squad, scoring 15 goals and registering 11 assists in 74 appearances.

Gordon said: "I just think the club's in a great place. Since the takeover it's just been up and up. Me and the gaffer are a perfect match in terms of style of play. I love it here.

"I'm very happy here, I like living here, the team is very suited to me - and I'm here to win a trophy. The short story is we need to win a trophy. Winning a trophy here would be unbelievable because the fans have waited so long. To be part of that team who finally does it is a massive goal of mine.

"We (my family and I) have always felt settled because Geordies are so easy-going and so welcoming, very easy to speak to and always want the best for you. 

"It's a very easy place to come and live, I think. I feel very connected to everyone - teammates, fans and everyone involved."
