Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has given the go-ahead for winger Anthony Gordon to join AC Milan on loan after the player agreed personal terms with the Italian club. The 23-year-old is set to move to San Siro on a season-long deal, pending a medical and final paperwork.
Gordon, who arrived at Newcastle from Everton in January 2023, has been a key player under Howe but is now set for a temporary switch to Serie A. The move comes as Newcastle looks to manage their squad depth and financial considerations while allowing Gordon to gain experience in a different league.
AC Milan manager Stefano Pioli has been eager to add attacking reinforcements, and Gordon’s pace, creativity, and work ethic make him a valuable addition. The loan deal is expected to include an option to buy, giving Milan the opportunity to secure him permanently based on his performances.
With personal terms agreed, the transfer is now subject to medical tests before an official announcement is made. Newcastle will be monitoring his progress in Italy, while Milan hopes the English winger can make an immediate impact as they compete for domestic and European honors.
