Barca is the biggest club on the planet.\n\n\"It's the stuff I dreamed of as a child. It really is a dream come true to be here.\n\n\"I know it comes with a lot of responsibility, but I'm ready for this kind of challenge.\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nGordon continued: \"I know the players in the past who've worn the shirt. It holds a lot of weight, but I'm excited for the challenge.\"\n\nNewcastle signed Gordon from Everton in January 2023 for around £40million.\n\nSince then, he has developed into one of the club's most influential players and one of the most highly regarded English wingers in Europe.\n\nGordon is one of three players from Newcastle United to be picked for the squad, joining Dan Burn and Tino Livramento.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nNotably, Englishman Lewis Hall from Newcastle was left out of the side, despite featuring 30 times for the Magpies in the league and impressing throughout.\n\nEngland will head to Florida in early June for a pre-World Cup training camp.\n\nAll of the Three Lions group stage games will be played in the US, which is hosting the tournament alongside Canada and Mexico.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter**",
