Records 21 minutes in cup Elanga (knee) created one scoring chance over 21 minutes as a substitute in Tuesday's EFL Cup loss to Manchester City.

Impact Elanga bounced back from the injury that forced him to miss the previous five games across all competitions. It's unclear if he'll get plenty of minutes in upcoming games, but he could contend with Harvey Barnes on the right flank if Jacob Murphy (hamstring) is ruled out. The former Manchester United man has failed to score and provided just one assist during 26 appearances this season.

Impact Elanga is nearing a return from a knee injury that made him miss all the games since late December and could make his return in Tuesday's first leg of the Carabao Cup semifinal against Manchester City. His return would be a great news for the Magpies to give a boost to the frontline, although Elanga is expected to claim back a rotational role in the frontline, with Yoane Wissa looking to keep a starting role for Newcastle.

Impact Elanga missed the last three games due to a knee injury and will miss Wednesday's clash against Leeds United after being labelled a late call in the recent days. The forward is nearing a return but the game on Wednesday is coming too soon for him. His next chance to return will come against Bournemouth on Saturday, leaving Harvey Barnes some space to see increased playing time in the frontline while he is still sidelined.

Late call Wednesday Elanga (undisclosed) resumed team training and will be a late call for Wednesday's clash against Leeds United, according to Kyle Newbould from the Yorkshire Evening Post.

Impact Elanga missed the last three games due to a knock that he has been struggling to get rid of and will be a late call for Wednesday's clash against Leeds United after resuming team training with the Magpies in recent days. This would be a boost for the attack since Jacob Murphy (hamstring) is also a doubt for that game, reducing the options in the frontline for coach Eddie Howe. Harvey Barnes is likely to see increased playing time if both remain out.

Almost joins group training Elanga (undisclosed) is nearing a return to group training, according to manager Eddie Howe. "Anthony hasn't trained with us yet ,but is very."

Impact Elanga is still dealing with a knock but is on the verge of a return, with the attacker almost joining the group for training. This likely leaves him with a return next week when facing Leeds United on Wednesday or against Bournemouth on Jan. 10, hoping to help his team during the busy stretch. He has struggled for time following his transfer this summer, with seven starts in 17 appearances while only recording one assist.

Impact Elanga is the latest player on Newcastle's injury list alongside Kieran Trippier (hamstring), Dan Burn (ribs), Sven Botman (back), Emil Krafth (knee), Tino Livramento (knee) and William Osula (ankle). The injury doesn't seem serious, though, and Elanga might have a shot at returning to action when facing Burnley on Dec. 30 in the Magpies' final game of the calendar year.

Misses out due to injury Elanga won't be available for Friday's game against Manchester United after sustaining an injury in the 2-2 draw against Chelsea on Saturday, Dec. 20.

Impact The extent of the injury hasn't been revealed, but the issue was severe enough to have Elanga sidelined to face his former team on a quick turnaround. Elanga has started in just seven of his 17 Premier League appearances this season, so his absence shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy upside. It remains to be seen if he'll be available to face Burnley on Tuesday, Dec. 30.

Three shots and six crosses in win Elanga generated three shots (one on goal), six crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-1 win versus Burnley.

Impact Despite his impressive efforts, Elanga was not involved of either of his squad's two goals in the win. His three shots in the match mark a new season high, while he is now up to three shots on target over the last four games. Additionally, his 32 completed passes marked another season high.

First Newcastle goal contribution Elanga assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 4-1 win versus Everton.

Impact Elanga's touch assisted Newcastle's third goal Saturday as they brushed aside Everton for a 4-1 road victory. The assist marked the forward's first goal contribution for his new club after transferring to Newcastle from Nottingham Forest in the summer transfer window. Elanga's inclusion in the starting XI Saturday was his first start since a 45-minute shift in mid-Oct. versus Brighton.

DECEMBER 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Four crosses off bench Elanga recorded one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Fulham.

Impact Elanga came off the bench Saturday after starting the last two Premier League matches, but he made an impact despite his limited minutes. He recorded four crosses (including a season-high two accurate crosses), created one chance and took one off-target shot on the attack. He also won one duel and intercepted one pass in his 14 minutes off the bench.

Falls to bench Elanga served off the bench in their 0-0 draw against Leeds United on Aug. 30 after starting in their opening two games of the season.

Impact Elanga was held to only two shots, two chances created and 15 crosses through his first two starts of the season, a mediocre stat line for 160 minutes of play. That said, he would be relegated to the bench for their next match, seeing 28 minutes of play against Leeds United, with only two crosses in his time on the field. He will likely look to recapture the spot after a disappointing draw to Leeds, with Jacob Murphy taking his spot during that contest.
