Elliot Anderson Club Career Stats
Anderson spent his youth, representing Newcastle at all youth levels, and signed his first professional contract with Newcastle United in November of 2019. The manager at the time Steve Bruce was impressed with the quality of Anderson and insisted that he trains with the first team on a regular basis. Anderson made his professional debut in the FA Cup against Arsenal, a game that Newcastle lost, unfortunately.
For improved game time and development, Anderson was loaned out to the League Two side Bristol Rovers. He impressed with his performances and manager and ex-Newcastle United player Joey Barton called his gameplay akin to Diego Maradona. His performances helped the club get promoted to League One.
He returned to Newcastle, got an improved contract and started to make appearances off the bench. While he could not nail a place in the starting XI, he started to show major improvements in his game, and Newcastle fans were looking at him as a wonderful future prospect. But the sad reality of Profit and Sustainability Regulations (PSR) forced Newcastle to make sales of academy players and Anderson was sold to Nottingham Forest for a surprising fee of £35 million, which caused a storm in the social media.
Anderson has not let his focus get drifted away and continued on his development. He is currently making waves at Nottingham Forest and proving that the club signed him for what he can do on the pitch itself.
