Anthony Gordon is the Champions League Player of the Week!

The initial matches of the playoff stage in the European Champions League have concluded, and the best player of the week has been determined. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

According to the official league website, Newcastle's forward Anthony Gordon was named the best player of the week. The 24-year-old English attacker earned this award not just by chance, but by putting on a real show.

In the match against Qarabag in Azerbaijan, Newcastle won with a score of 6-1. Gordon demonstrated himself as a true hero by scoring four goals in this game.

Scoring four goals in a single match is not only a statistical achievement but also a warning signal to the opposing team. The voting process was also interesting.

Gordon surpassed competitors such as PSG's Desire Doué, Bodø/Glimt's Kasper Høgh, and Bayer's Patrik Schick. This week, Gordon's high level and effectiveness gave him a significant advantage.

Additionally, Anthony Gordon is also performing excellently in the 2025/2026 Champions League season. So far, he has scored 10 goals and provided 2 assists in 9 matches.

This means he almost guarantees a goal in every game. This award is not only a personal achievement for Gordon but also of great importance for the Newcastle team.
