The North East native has spoken to GOAL about boyhood idols, toughest opponents, scoring at St James’ Park, best away days and future targets

Newcastle United manager Matthias Jaissle is sweating over the fitness of Anthony Elanga as the Magpies prepare for a crucial St James' Park encounter against Hull City. The Swedish international was a notable absentee during the bruising 4-1 defeat at Leeds United, and his absence has triggered a wider selection headache for the German coach.

Newcastle United have been dealt a significant blow after the Swedish FA confirmed that winger Anthony Elanga will miss the upcoming international break due to injury. The former Manchester United man, who has been a standout performer for the Magpies this season, is now facing a potentially lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Leeds United secured a commanding 4-1 victory against Newcastle United at Elland Road, climbing to third in the Premier League table and handing the visitors their first defeat of the season. First-half goals from an own goal, Jayden Bogle, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin took the game away early on. Noah Okafor added a fourth, with Bazoumana Toure scoring a late consolation.
