Despite rumors that Newcastle United might let Anthony Gordon go, Arsenal is hesitant to pursue the 24-year-old.

While former scout Mick Brown suggests top clubs are tracking his availability, Mikel Arteta reportedly prefers his existing wingers—Martinelli, Saka, and Madueke—viewing Gordon as too costly a gamble.

Although the England winger’s speed and aggressive style are clear strengths, his lack of scoring output this season is becoming a major concern.

Anthony Gordon has failed to score from open play in the Premier League for over a year, a slump that pundit Michael Brown suggests is creating a significant headache for manager Eddie Howe.

According to a report from Football Insider on January 19, former scout Mick Brown suggests that Newcastle United are open to selling Anthony Gordon this summer, provided they receive a substantial transfer fee.

While Liverpool and Arsenal have long been linked with the England winger, both clubs are now reportedly hesitant to move forward with a formal bid.

“Gordon has been linked to Arsenal in the past,” Brown told Football Insider.

“But if he continues like this the likes of Liverpool and Arsenal for example won’t be interested.

“He shares some qualities with Madueke, he’s very direct, wants to get into attacking areas and to get at people, but if you offered me both I would take Madueke. For Arsenal, it seems Arteta is happy with the options he’s got out wide at the moment.

“Madueke, Saka and Martinelli are three very good options, and then you’ve got the likes of Trossard to come in there too, so it’s not a priority.
