Multiple reliable news outlets have reported that the race to sign Anthony Gordon is heating up, as reports indicate that Man Utd have now officially submitted a bid for the player as they look to strengthen their squad ahead of the run-in. Talks are expected to continue over the coming days - with Newcastle said to be reluctant to let him go for a penny less than their valuation. Bayern Munich, Arsenal and Liverpool may look to intervene if talks continue without resolution. At 1.78 goals scored per game this season, Man Utd already pose a big threat. Anthony Gordon would be expected to maintain that level and give them another reliable option in attack. Newcastle have also been linked with Yan Diomande, Jeremy Monga and Manuel Ugarte while Man Utd are reportedly monitoring Djed Spence, Ao Tanaka and David Alaba.
