Anthony Elanga has signed for Newcastle United. He is the first major sifning for two years, and perfect for Eddie Howe.

It's been a frustrating year for Jamaal Lascelles as he recovered from ACL surgery The Newcastle United club captain was able to return to the first-team squad towards the back end of last season, but has not been seen in competitive action since picking up a bad knee injury against West Ham in March 2024.

Newcastle United have completed the signing of Anthony Elanga from Nottingham Forest, and plenty of his peers – including Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers – are buzzing. On Friday, Newcastle announced the arrival of Elanga on a long-term contract, having agreed a deal with Nottingham Forest reportedly worth £55million.

Should a deal go through, there would be a welcome windfall for Man Utd, who included a sell-on clause in their agreement with Forest two years ago. The report puts the clause at 15% of the profit of a future sale, though other Mail sources suggest it's as high as 20%—a figure that would see United pocket a cool £8 million ($10.9 million).
