Newcastle United transferred Elliot Anderson to Nottingham Forest to meet financial regulations at the beginning of the season. Discussions have occurred regarding the possibility of Newcastle attempting to re-sign him in the future. A report from Daily Mail indicated that Newcastle lacks a buyback clause for Anderson and would need to pay a premium to reacquire him. Nottingham Forest reportedly paid approximately £35 million for Anderson. It appears very unlikely that Newcastle will be able to re-sign him soon, as Nottingham Forest is expected to seek a substantial profit due to his recent performances.
