Bayern Munich is going full throttle in their pursuit of Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon—and the club's supervisory board is fully on board.

While rumors have been swirling that personal terms are already agreed between the player and the Bavarian giants, the main sticking point remains the transfer fee. Newcastle United's asking price is reportedly higher than what Bayern Munich is willing to pay. But according to Sport Bild journalists Christian Falk and Heiko Niedderer, the club's famously cautious supervisory board is giving sporting director Max Eberl the green light to push the deal through.

In a rare show of unity, the board is backing Eberl "fully" to complete the move—though they still expect the fee to be negotiated down. For his part, Gordon is said to be keen on joining the German champions.

When was the last time everyone at Bayern Munich was this aligned on a transfer target? It's a testament to how highly the club rates the 23-year-old England youth international, who has been electric for Newcastle this season with his pace, direct dribbling, and eye for goal.

Expect this to be one of the summer's biggest sagas. If Bayern can bridge the fee gap, Gordon could be wearing the famous red shirt next season—and that means fans will want to be ready with the latest Bayern Munich training gear and match kits to celebrate the arrival of a potential new star.
