GET IT DONE: Anthony Gordon hopes England teammate Marc Guehi joins him at Newcastle – ‘He’d make us better’

In response to rumours that Newcastle is interested in the England defender Marc Guehi, Anthony Gordon has praised his colleague.

Guehi made an impression for Crystal Palace in the previous year, and his efforts were rewarded

with a spot in England’s Euro 2024 roster.

Due to an injury to Harry Maguire, the 23-year-old was given the opportunity to play with John

Stones in the centre of the England defence for the Three Lions’ opening match against Serbia.

He excelled in the 1-0 triumph.

Gordon, who did not play in Sunday’s Group C match, was quick to commend Guehi on his

significant debut in an international event.

Additionally, he said that he would be happy to have the centre back at St. James’ Park this

summer.

Gordon Would Love Guehi at Newcastle United

In an exclusive interview with talkSPORT’s England correspondent Faye Carruthers, Gordon

stated, “He’s top, he’s such a good player and I was glad the nation got to see him shine on that

stage because he’s such a lovely guy and he deserves what’s coming to him.”

Considering his height in relation to the strikers they put on, I thought he was amazing in that

match [against Serbia].

“He was aggressive, winning every header, intercepting a lot of balls, and his main strength is

his composure on the ball—he plays like a midfielder.”

“So, his back-row partnership with Stonesy is excellent for controlling the game.”

TalkSPORT has learned that Palace owner Steve Parish, who witnessed Guehi’s performance

during the Serbia match, believes the defender is worth over £70 million and is expecting offers.

Chelsea, whose academy he attended, Newcastle, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Manchester

United have all been mentioned.

Gordon commented, “I haven’t actually seen the Newcastle links, but it goes without saying I’d absolutely love him to come because he’s a top player and he’d make us a better team,” in response

to rumours of a possible move to Tyneside.
