Bristol Rovers will have to wait until the very end of the summer transfer window to find out if they can re-sign Elliot Anderson after Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe admitted the midfielder would be staying for the start of the Premier League season.
Anderson delivered another impressive display on Friday night as the Magpies beat Serie A side Atalanta 1-0 with the 19-year-old winning the penalty from which Chris Wood scored the only goal of the game.
Rovers are among a host of clubs at Championship, League One and Scottish Premier League level who wish to sign Anderson on loan for the 2022/23 season, with Sheffield Wednesday, West Brom, Luton Town and Millwall on a list well into double figures.
