Newcastle United youngster Elliot Anderson is attracting interest this month as a host of Championship sides once again try and sign the attacking midfielder on loan. Anderson, plagued by a series of small injuries this season, has found game time hard to come by since Eddie Howe opted against letting him leave Tyneside in the summer.
As many as a dozen second-tier sides pursued Anderson before the start of the season, along with a handful of Scottish teams. Chronicle Live understands a number of those sides are again seeking to temporarily add Anderson to their ranks.
Birmingham City, Preston North End, Reading and Luton Town are among the English clubs keeping an eye on the player's situation this month. However, Howe may again choose to keep Anderson at St James' Park until the end of the season.
