When Premier League champions Manchester City came to St James' Park last month, the Newcastle fans showcased a huge banner in the Gallowgate end in recognition of their star winger Anthony Gordon, which the player admitted almost left him "crying on the pitch".
Now there will be a feeling of relief from supporters after one of the club's 'untouchables' seemingly ended any speculation about his future by signing a new long-term deal.
The 23-year-old's bumper new contract is a show of faith from the club for his fine form last season and a signal of intent to maintain a team around Gordon, striker Alexander Isak and midfielder Bruno Guimaraes.
