What is the latest on Anthony Elanga to Newcastle United?
Newcastle United's interest in Anthony Elanga isn't a secret. It wasn't in 2024, and it certainly isn't now. Last year, the Magpies made a £35 million [$47m] approach, which was promptly rejected by Nottingham Forest. Then they returned with an increased bid of £50 million [$68m] on transfer deadline day, only for Forest to turn down the improved offer as well.

Their latest £45 million offer was also rejected, as Forest hold firm on a £60 million [$81m] valuation, according to The i. What is the latest on Anthony Elanga to Newcastle United? Newcastle remain quietly confident that a deal can be struck and reportedly have offered £50 million for the former Man United man. According to The i, negotiations remain active, and the club sees the continued dialogue as a positive signal. 📲 Follow The Sporting News on WhatsApp Simultaneously, the Magpies are preparing to return to the table for Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford. Advertisement Former Manchester United and Sunderland chief scout Mick Brown, speaking to Football Insider, claimed Elanga is keen on a move: 'From what I hear, it'll take at least £60 million for them to accept an offer.' Brown added: 'Ideally, they'd like to keep him because he's been a big part of their progress this season. Having those direct wingers has allowed them to play the way they do. I don't know the exact terms of his contract, but I believe when Man United let him go, they had a clause in there that they get a percentage of his future sales. So if they must sell him, they want to bump up that price and make the most money they can.'

Nevertheless, if Newcastle edge closer to the £60 million demand, a breakthrough could still come. Newcastle United news and related links

Man Utd transfer news LIVE: Callum Hudson-Odoi EXCLUSIVE, Mbeumo personal terms ‘already agreed, Ekitike latest
Amorim's Mount U-turn Manchester United are set to entertain offers for Mason Mount this summer, it's been claimed. Former United scout Mick Brown said: "There is a possibility Mason Mount is sold. "They put a lot of stock into getting him fit again and getting him back to where he was. 'He's played a number of games in succession now, but I think Amorim has made the decision that he doesn't think he's good enough. 'If they feel they can move him on and there's enough interest, they're prepared to do it. United will do the same thing with a few of their fringe players if offers are made. 'They've got Cunha and probably Mbeumo coming in to play in the positions he was being used in, so that is a sign of where he ranks in the squad. 'It's a shame he's had these injuries since he arrived from Chelsea because there is a top player in there. United just feel they can improve in that position and that may mean moving him on.'
