Bristol Rovers have already thrown their hat into the ring to sign Elliot Anderson on loan from Newcastle United next season.
The 19-year-old has already written his name into footballing folklore at Rovers after scoring the crucial final goal of their 7-0 win over Scunthorpe United. Anderson has a brilliant rapport with former Newcastle star Joey Barton and will be assured game-time in League One next season if Rovers get the green light.
Anderson has a clutch of Championship clubs queuing up to sign him in the summer window and there is a chance that Eddie Howe will want to take a closer look at him in pre-season. Rovers will make the case to Newcastle to involve Anderson at the start of their pre-season preparations and get him ready for the 46-game programme ahead of them in the third flight.
