Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe has a big decision to make when it comes to youngster Elliot Anderson. The 19-year-old has already impressed in pre-season with the first team so far, with Howe taking a close look at the hot prospect before deciding on his immediate future.
Anderson is highly rated at St James' Park, but the coaching staff now must weigh up if a loan move to a Championship club would be more beneficial to his development, or whether he is ready to play a role in the first-team squad for the coming Premier League campaign.
There are no shortage of suitors for the attacking playmaker, with the likes of Millwall, West Brom, Luton and Sheffield Wednesday all credited with interest. But when it comes to making an impression, Anderson can consider it a job well done already this summer.
