Newcastle striker Wilson: Anderson has big future

Newcastle United youngster Elliot Anderson has all the qualities to succeed at the club.

That is according to his senior teammate Callum Wilson, who outlined the academy product's potential.

Anderson is one who could be the subject of an international tug of war, with England and Scotland both pushing for him to represent their respective nation.

Wilson told the Footballer's Football Podcast: "Yeah a young lad who's come through the academy, which is always good to see. He's a good player, a confident lad.

"He's got himself into the team after a loan spell that he had a few seasons ago and he's worked his way up which is always nice to see. I think personally, he's going to be a good player for the future and he's got his feet on the ground so I cant see anything going top his head.

"He's humble and he works hard. They're the key components that you need to become a footballer that's successful at a club like Newcastle."
