In a strategic yet reluctant decision, Newcastle United sold midfielder Elliot Anderson to Nottingham Forest last month. This move was driven by the club’s need to comply with the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules. To avoid a potential points deduction, Newcastle had to raise significant funds, resulting in the sale of Anderson and another hot prospect, Yankuba Minteh, who moved to Brighton.

Newcastle United owners have now done two excellent pieces of business
Despite these challenges, Newcastle United has managed to retain its star players. By July, it was evident that Isak, Guimaraes, and Gordon would remain at St. James’ Park for the upcoming season. This stability is a significant achievement, given the financial pressures and external interest in these players.
