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.
Four crosses off bench
Elanga recorded one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Fulham.
ANALYSIS
Elanga came off the bench Saturday after starting the last two Premier League matches, but he made an impact despite his limited minutes. He recorded four crosses (including a season-high two accurate crosses), created one chance and took one off-target shot on the attack. He also won one duel and intercepted one pass in his 14 minutes off the bench.
