But Anderson’s hugely successful loan stint at League Two Bristol Rovers last season has attracted a number of Championship clubs as well as Wednesday as to his potential availability.
The preference of ambitious Anderson, however, is to play a part at St James Park.
“I want to be here,” he said. “I want to force my way into the team, but, I guess, that’s the club’s decision. I’ve just got to work as hard as I can on the pitch, and see what happens.

“I just want to try and carry on the momentum I had (on loan). Obviously, it’s a lot higher standard, but I need to try and take what I did well (on loan) into these pre-season games.”
“I’ll explore that when it comes, but, obviously, you want to be playing as high as you can, push yourself.”
