transfer news: Newcastle dealt blow to chances of signing Anderson

Elliot Anderson Newcastle have started to think about their 2026 transfer business, and it is expected that they will address their midfield options. Sandro Tonali has been linked with a return to Italy in recent weeks, and if he were to leave, a perfect replacement would be Geordie boy Elliot Anderson. Anderson left Newcastle in the summer of 2024 to join Nottingham Forest, in a deal that was PSR-fuelled. Since moving to the City Ground, the 22-year-old has kicked on massively, and he is now a regular England international, and this will complicate the chances of him returning to St James’ Park. As per Football Insider, Pete O’Rourke has revealed that Nottingham Forest have no plans to sell Anderson anytime soon, given that they see him as being someone that can help them cli...
