Harry Kane, a 33-year-old striker at Bayern Munich, has linked Anthony Gordon's growth to his transfer to Barcelona this summer, following the winger's performance with England in the Nations League.

Harry Kane highlights Barcelona's effect on Gordon

Harry Kane spoke about the change experienced by Anthony Gordon since he joined Barcelona and linked his development to the confidence that playing for a top club provides. The Bayern Munich striker cited the assurance that the winger has translated into his performances with England.

"Moving to Barcelona has been very beneficial for Gordon. Sometimes, joining such a big club gives you more self-assurance," explained Kane after the second round of the Nations League.

Gordon, 25 years old, joined Barcelona from Newcastle United in May 2026 and signed a contract until 2031. The deal was sealed for 80 million euros, as reported by El País, while Barcelona officially confirmed his signing and the duration of the contract.

Recent performances support Kane's argument. Gordon scored against Spain on September 26 and repeated the feat against Czech Republic three days later, making it three consecutive international games with a goal.

Anthony Gordon changes his scenario after joining Barcelona

Anthony Gordon himself recently explained that his adaptation to Barcelona has also altered his perception of his own abilities. In an interview published on September 19, he pointed out that he considers football intelligence one of his least recognized attributes during his time in England.

The move to Barça came after three seasons at Newcastle. In his first full season with the 'Magpies,' he recorded 12 goals and 10 assists, while during the 2026 World Cup, he provided three assists for England.

Gordon's impact also extended to his initial months at Barcelona. The club announced in September that the winger had been directly involved in crucial actions since the start of the season, while AS reported five assists in six LaLiga matches before the international break.

Bayern Munich keeps Kane as Gordon gains importance

The reference from Harry Kane also relates to his own professional context. The striker remains at Bayern Munich, where he is under contract until June 30, 2027, after moving from Tottenham in 2023.

Kane and Gordon share the dressing room with England and were key figures against Czech Republic: the Barcelona player opened the scoring, and Kane netted the 2-0 in Prague. Four days earlier, both had scored against Spain at Wembley, although England ultimately lost 2-3.

The upcoming international phase will reveal whether Harry Kane maintains this assessment of Gordon when England faces their next Nations League matches. For Barcelona, the focus will be on translating the winger's international form into domestic competition.
