Eddie Howe has confirmed Newcastle United will take a close look at Elliot Anderson in pre-season after the teenager played a starring role in Bristol Rovers' promotion.
Anderson was a transformative influence on Rovers' season, scoring seven goals and adding six assists in 20 starts since joining on loan from the Magpies on January deadline day. The 19-year-old is the talk of the EFL, with a horde of clubs interested in taking him on loan next season, and his scintillating form has not gone unnoticed at St James' Park.
Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has faced plenty of questions in recent weeks and months about Tyneside's homegrown hope, offering high praise for the playmaker's impact in the blue and white quarters, and now his loan spell is up the Toon manager is eager to get to work with Anderson this summer.
