Media reports claim that Newcastle are keeping tabs on Elliot Anderson, who currently plays as a midfielder for Nottingham Forest. The move is still in the early stages, but interest appears to be growing. Newcastle are still pushing to finalise terms. However, Liverpool and Man Utd are still watching closely and may return with offers of their own. Newcastle are only scoring 0.67 goals per game (4 in 6) this season, which suggests they need more creativity in the middle. Elliot Anderson would be seen as the link to raise the tempo and feed the attack. Newcastle have recently been linked with Oihan Sancet, Manuel Locatelli and Julian Brandt while Nottingham Forest have had no rumoured targets. More on this story as it develops.
