His name has already been chanted at the Camp Nou, and fans have already brought signs with his name on it. \u201cAntoni Gros \u00e9s catal\u00e0,\u201d one flag read in Catalan. That is: Anthony Gordon, or a version of his name in Catalan, is Catalan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">The craziest thing about all this is that Gordon has only played two matches for Bar\u00e7a, and he has yet to score.

In particular, he has given up chances to score his maiden goal in order to set up teammates, a gesture that shows a clear selflessness. He has three assists so far.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sport.es\/es\/noticias\/barca\/gordon-gana-vestuario-133929375\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Reports<\/a> say he\u2019s popular in the dressing room, too, despite the language barrier.
