Newcastle may not benefit from Anderson's potential transfer from Forest
Summary

Elliot Anderson, currently at Nottingham Forest, may not trigger a sell-on clause for Newcastle if he leaves. Reports indicate Newcastle is not positioned to gain financially from any future transfer, as no buy-back option was included when he was sold. This loss comes after a necessary fund-raising effort to avoid penalties for breaching profit and sustainability rules. Anderson's rise to prominence as an England starter has highlighted the missed opportunity for Newcastle's coaching staff, who had high hopes for his development at the club. His future remains uncertain, with indications that he may transfer elsewhere rather than return to St James' Park.

As far as I'm aware Newcastle would not stand to benefit financially if Anderson left Nottingham Forest. Ordinarily these clauses would be negotiated during the sale of promising young players, as sides like Manchester City and Chelsea have over the years.
