Thomas Tuchel’s Game-Changing Move Could Shake Up Newcastle’s Anthony Gordon’s Future
Newcastle’s Anthony Gordon has yet to find his rhythm with the England national team, despite brief moments of promise. During Euro 2024, Gordon faced a challenging time, as many wondered why he and fellow winger Cole Palmer weren’t given more game time while England struggled in the group stages. Though Palmer eventually scored in the final, Gordon remained largely on the sidelines.
Now, with Thomas Tuchel set to lead the Three Lions, Gordon’s place may face new competition. Reports indicate Tuchel has reached out to Marcus Rashford, hinting that his absence during Euro 2024 weakened England’s left-wing attack. While Tuchel values Rashford’s experience, he hasn’t dismissed Gordon’s potential; he admired Gordon’s bold playing style as far back as 2022. As England prepares for the 2026 World Cup, Tuchel’s desire for multiple strong options suggests a fierce battle for the left-wing position.
