Quick browse of some Newcastle forums (as I don't know much about Anderson to be honest) and a few seem to be of the opinion that he showed some promise but injuries have stalled his progress. If he is coming here, I hope those injury problems are behind him.
Had a goal controversially ruled out against us when they beat us 2-1 at the CG.

Nottingham's dirty secret
Percy saying Minteh is also a possibility in a swap. Highly rated Gambian winger who they were trying to sell for £40m.
Anyone know much of him?

Newcastle are reluctantly looking to sell the 19-year-old winger before the Premier LeagueProfitability and Sustainability Rules deadline on Sunday, June 30 but have so far been unable to complete a deal.
According to The Sun, Newcastle agreed a near £40million deal with Ligue 1 side Lyon. But Minteh declined to speak to the French club as his preference is to stay in the Premier League

Sounds like the fee they agreed with Lyon was £27.5m and not the 40m.
Newcastle open talks with Forest for Elanga
Latest from Sky Sports News' Mark McAdam:Newcastle have opened talks with Nottingham Forest over a deal for Anthony Elanga, with Elliot Anderson potentially heading in the opposite direction.
Eddie Howe is looking to strengthen in attack and Elanga's versatility appeals having played across the front three this season.
It's expected this will be a tricky summer to recruit with financial restrictions affecting what Newcastle can spend.
They're also in need of closing the PSR gap when the financial accounting period ends on June 30 so are under pressure to get deals done quickly, as are Forest.
Nuno Espirito Santo is keen on Anderson as they look to strengthen in midfield and believes the 21-year-old has a strong future. He would also represent 100 per cent profit for Newcastle.
Time is against both clubs but talks remain ongoing this weekend.

Interesting on Anderson - very little goal output but is highly rated. His xG for last season is pretty poor too - 1.4xG from 1024 minutes in 21 appearances doesn’t strike me as a player that replaces Elangas goal contributions. However, you might have said the exact same thing about Elanga when he came to us last summer.
Perhaps we’re weighing if we sell CHO or Elanga and this deal makes the most sense for us?
Elanga will almost certainly be valued at around £30-35m, imo his value has doubled since he came to us as he’s proven he can do the business in the prem outside of Man U.
I’d hazard a guess that Anderson would be valued at £15-£20m the other way, meaning both clubs get to book the same amount of profit across PSR for FY23/24 - and we hope we can basically do the same thing with Anderson that we did with Elanga.
The more I think about it, the less I hate it

They're not like for like, Anderson's a CM. I assume Anderson's tackling stats are significantly better than Elanga's for example.

Dont fancy Anderson if this is happening but Minteh on the other hand
Listen 'ere young man

There is already very little goal output in our squad apart from the front 4. Losing one of them is fraught with risk.
We don't want to pad the midfield with holding players who can't change a game.
CHO, Elanga, MGW need to be complemented by new signings, we can't keep making big changes in the squad/1st XI every year and then take 6 months to gel, hovering around 17th at Christmas and rumours of EM talking to non entities about taking over from Nuno.

If this is a way to get Newcastle out of their £30M PSR hole then it would make sense to inflate Anderson’s value to the £30M and we get Minteh for a cut price £15-20M post July.
More chance of Elliot Page.

I didn’t realise they had 30m to make - and for the ‘buying’ club I suspect we don’t really mind the fiscal impact this and next season so long as the fee in return is higher than the first two amortised periods.
I can’t wait to talk about football and not commercial constructs, this is so painful
You spelt „absolute f***ing bullshit” wrong.

Good player, one that you'd hope to add to a squad including Elanga not instead of.
Unsure he would leave his hometown club and the richest club in the world, in truth if its being discussed it demonstrates the ridiculousness of psr.

Wonder if we can worm our way into a 2 for 1, Anderson and Minteh for Elanga

I suspect we've asked about him - see the Brum lad also - and they've come back to ask about including Elanga.

Or, Newcastle are trying to get out their PSR hole and this deal makes sense for all parties if they’re gonna pay over the odds to Elanga in return for an immediate £30m fee on Anderson.

Only makes sense if we don't want Elanga. If I had Gordon on one wing I'd want Elanga on the other though...
Matt
Stuart Pearce
Every player has a price. If Newcastle are willing to part with 45-50m for Elanga and we pay 30 for Anderson, which means we can solve PSR this and next season without selling Murillo or MGW and get an immediate replacement for Elanga; then that is a deal that suits everyone.

True, though I prefer the one where we keep Elanga - they'd need to pay silly money toske it work.
