Anthony Gordon, a winger for Newcastle United, has responded to Harry Kane’s recommendation that players should prioritise playing for England over “anything.”Captain Kane stated, as reported by ITV Sport, that ”

I believe that England is of paramount importance – England is of paramount importance before the club,” following his numerous withdrawals from the England squad during the November international break.

As a professional footballer, England is the most significant role you can perform. Gareth [Southgate] was acutely aware of this and was unafraid to make decisions if it began to deviate from certain players.No doubt, this week is a disappointment. I believe that this is a challenging time of year; it is possible that this has been exploited to some extent.

If I am entirely candid, I do not particularly enjoy it. I am of the opinion that England should take precedence over any club situation. “[Gareth] Southgate reignited the excitement of playing for England.” Everyone was eager to attend the camp, and they all desired to represent England, which is the most significant factor.

The Bayern Munich striker is one of the few players in the current England squad who competes in a league other than the Premier League. The other three players in England’s 26-man squad for the Nations League match against Greece and Republic

of Ireland are Conor Gallagher of Atletico Madrid, Jude Bellingham of Real Madrid, and Angel Gomes of Lille. Gordon was confronted with a challenging inquiry prior to the match against Greece: Should he prioritise his role with England over his role with Newcastle, as Kane and his teammates were advised to do?

However, Gordon, who persevered through a setback to represent England this week, maintained a composed demeanour in his response. “That is an excellent inquiry,” he replied with a smile. “I would say that the most significant aspect of my life is the team I am currently playing for, as it is the challenge that lies ahead of me.”

“I believe it would be difficult to choose a single one, but England is a unique experience. You are chosen to be a part of a group that represents the best of all teams, which is a positive feeling.” But I would state what is immediately in front of me.

Gordon continued to emphasise his aspiration to represent England, despite the fact that he sustained an injury during Newcastle’s 3-1 victory over Nottingham Forest on Sunday.

“[Newcastle] are aware of my sentiments regarding representing England and were aware of my intentions regardless; however, the primary objective was to evaluate my capabilities upon my arrival.”

“I was and, of course, I will play for England if I am healthy.” Gordon will return to Newcastle for the Premier League match against West Ham United on 25 November (8pm kick-off), following the two England encounters.
