Anthony Gordon says selecting Scotland over England was ‘never a thought’.
Newcastle forward Anthony Gordon insists he has always had eyes for England and that switching allegiance to Scotland was “never a thought”.
At a press conference today (March 21), Gordon stated: “That is no disrespect to Scotland. Since I was about five or six years old, I’ve had a strong desire to represent England. Nothing could ever shake it off.
The 23-year-old has received his first senior call-up for the upcoming Wembley friendly double-header against Brazil and Belgium, with a chance to break into Gareth Southgate’s side just in time for Euro 2024.
Gordon helped England win the 2023 European Under-21 Championship, when he was voted player of the tournament.
