Anthony Elanga
23-Year-Old
Newcastle United
Premier
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.
Three shots and six crosses in win
Elanga generated three shots (one on goal), six crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-1 win versus Burnley.
ANALYSIS
Despite his impressive efforts, Elanga was not involved of either of his squad's two goals in the win. His three shots in the match mark a new season high, while he is now up to three shots on target over the last four games. Additionally, his 32 completed passes marked another season high. On the other hand, this marked the fourth time in 15 league appearances that he delivered at least five crosses, but he has not landed one accurately in the last five of those outings.
