Newcastle United has recently sold midfielder Elliot Anderson to Nottingham Forest, sparking mixed emotions among the club’s supporters. Despite being a product of the academy and impressing with his skills and versatility, Anderson’s departure has stirred up a sense of disappointment among fans who were hoping to see more academy players breaking into the first team.
BBC Radio Newcastle’s Matthew Raisbeck discussed this sentiment on the Shut Up And Show More Football podcast. He shared that recent days have been tumultuous for the club as they had to offload players to meet profit and sustainability regulations. While many fans were disappointed by Anderson’s transfer, Raisbeck praised his competitive spirit, energy, technical abilities, and natural talent.
Despite their reluctance to sell him, Newcastle knew they had to make a difficult decision by the 30 June deadline. However, there is a consensus among both the club and its supporters that Anderson has a bright future in football.
