Anthony Elanga has been identified as Newcastle United’s potential “secret weapon,” despite the £55 million summer signing facing initial struggles to integrate into Eddie Howe’s first-team plans.
The former Manchester United winger is tipped to soon unlock his top form, drawing parallels with how Howe transformed other players into stars at St. James’ Park.
The article suggests that while Elanga’s statistics are currently underwhelming, his speed and tenacity offer an element of surprise that the Magpies can utilize to dismantle opposing defenses. Experts believe that the key to maximizing his impact lies in specific tactical adjustments and learning from his successful teammates.
Elanga, who has reportedly “struggled at Newcastle so far,” is expected to become an influential figure once he masters the positional discipline required by Howe’s system.
The belief is that the manager’s coaching methods, previously proven to enhance players, will elevate Elanga’s game, making him a crucial offensive asset.
