"Anthony Gordon not involved against Bournemouth 24 hours after Eddie Howe said he can only pick players who are totally committed to the club. Not a great look in that context but official reason given is a slight hip injury."
"This follows the Telegraph reporting on Gordon being open to leaving NUFC this summer, with Liverpool and Arsenal mentioned as suitors for the England international."
"It may be that Gordon is just carrying a knock that Newcastle have decided not to take any risks with, but it's certainly not ideal timing."
Anthony Gordon was left out of Newcastle United's matchday squad against Bournemouth due to a slight hip injury. This absence comes after manager Eddie Howe emphasized the need for players to be fully committed. Gordon's potential departure has been speculated, with Liverpool and Arsenal showing interest. His absence is seen as poor timing, especially considering his importance to the team and the previous transfer saga involving Alexander Isak. Newcastle's decision not to risk Gordon's health may indicate their awareness of the ongoing transfer discussions.
