"after completing his 55m move from Nottingham Forest last summer, and finding a home in the North East, Elanga set about kitting out his new house with a gym, hyperbaric chamber, red light therapy bed, sauna, plunge pool and, even, a 3G football pitch. The forward works with a strength and conditioning coach, sports therapist and chef, and had a similar set-up during his time at the City Ground, where he had a hand in 18 goals during an injury-free campaign last season."
""Bringing Blair into this world and raising her here, it's probably the best feeling ever," he said. "She's a little Geordie who's going to be raised in Newcastle. She's going to have the accent as well, which is nice. "I just can't wait for her to be walking around and touching the football, hearing her talk, having her integrate with other kids here in Newcastle. It's hard to describe. I wouldn't change that feeling for the world.""
Anthony Elanga invested in an extensive home recovery and training environment after moving to Newcastle, installing a gym, hyperbaric chamber, red-light therapy bed, sauna, plunge pool and a 3G pitch. He works with a strength and conditioning coach, sports therapist and chef, continuing similar routines from Nottingham Forest where he contributed to 18 goals in an injury-free season. Elanga seeks marginal gains, calling the extra '1%' important. He showed improvement for Newcastle in a 2-1 win over Tottenham and believes more progress lies ahead. Elanga recently became a father and expresses pride and anticipation about raising his daughter in Newcastle.
