Newcastle manager Howe: Anderson will get his chance here

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has said he will give Elliot Anderson his "window of opportunity" to impress.

The 19-year-old has been pursued by Sheffield Wednesday and Bristol Rovers.

But Howe wants Anderson to be part of his first-team squad this season.

Asked if Anderson was edging closer, Howe said: "Really good performance from Elliot at Wolves. I think he's been waiting for that window of opportunity.

"We were chasing the game, I was delighted to give him that moment.

"I thought he did really well. He was very good in the pockets, made a creative difference for us. He's a player with a very bright future."
