Mentioned the other day that I hoped Longstaff would be able to swing it for us:
Blackpool have completed the signing of Newcastle United striker Elias Sorensen on loan until the end of the season, with the 19-year-old suggesting Sean Longstaff was a big influence on his move.
The Seasiders confirmed the news via their official club website on Monday afternoon.
Sorensen has netted 19 goals already this campaign for the Magpies’ reserve side and will follow in the footsteps of teammate Longstaff, who also spent time with Blackpool before making his breakthrough into Rafa Benitez’s first team plans.
The Danish youth international has admitted that his colleague was an influence on his decision to choose the club.
He said: “I spoke to him about it [this move] and he liked it when he was here. I thought it would be a great opportunity for me as well.”
