Barcelona star Anthony Gordon considered one of England’s ‘main men’ by Harry Kane

England captain Harry Kane praised Barcelona forward Anthony Gordon, calling him one of the national team's main men following a series of impressive international performances. Manager Thomas Tuchel also lauded Gordon's decisive impact and technical finishing after recent matches, including a goal in England's 2-0 win over the Czech Republic and a strike in a 3-2 defeat against Spain.

According to the BBC, Gordon is viewed alongside Kane, Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice, and Jordan Pickford as an essential starter under Tuchel. The former Newcastle player established himself as a key figure during England's World Cup run, where he provided a vital assist against Norway and scored the opening goal in their semifinal loss to Argentina.
