2025 Fantasy Outlook
Elanga turned in back-to-back successful seasons at Nottingham Forest into a deal with Newcastle. He combined for 11 goals and 20 assists the last two seasons, aided by majority work on set pieces this past season. His role for Newcastle is a little unclear, though they dished out the money for him. He'll compete with a bevy of players for starts and it's a wonder if Eddie Howe will stop using the same XI that had success last season. Elanga has upside and may be on a split of sets when in the squad. However, his playing time from the jump is a big unknown.
Dealing with knock
F/MNewcastle United
GTD
December 27, 2025
Elanga (undisclosed) missed Thursday's loss to Manchester United due to a knock, manager Eddie Howe confirmed in the post-game press conference. "He took a knock against Chelsea. We don't think it's too serious and we hope to have him back pretty quickly."
ANALYSIS
Elanga is the latest player on Newcastle's injury list alongside Kieran Trippier (hamstring), Dan Burn (ribs), Sven Botman (back), Emil Krafth (knee), Tino Livramento (knee) and William Osula (ankle). The injury doesn't seem serious, though, and Elanga might have a shot at returning to action when facing Burnley on Dec. 30 in the Magpies' final game of the calendar year.
