West Brom are among a dozen clubs being linked with a move for Newcastle United youngster Elliot Anderson this summer, according to a new report. The 19-year-old enjoyed an impressive spell on loan at Bristol Rovers last season, joining in January and scoring seven goals in 21 League Two appearances.
With Newcastle looking to bring in new signings this summer as they flaunt their vast wealth, it could be that Anderson is again sent out on loan, in order to aid his development.
With West Brom also looking at reinforcements, it looks as though the Magpies youngster is a target for Steve Bruce, who knows him from his time at St James’ Park.
That’s according to Edinburgh News, who claimed that as many as 12 clubs are pursuing Anderson ahead of a temporary move, with the Baggies in the mix to sign him.
