Signed instead of Rashford, Gordon is proving worth at Barca

Anthony Gordon has completed a £70 million transfer to Barcelona. The move, which occurred after the club pursued him as an alternative to Marcus Rashford, has drawn early praise following the winger's strong start with the Spanish side.

While the transfer initially faced skepticism from some observers, Gordon’s performance has been highlighted by his contributions to Barcelona’s current high-scoring form. The England international is now being credited for justifying the significant investment made by the club.
