Fresh actors next to the French university with man from football club (9,6)
I believe the answer is:
newcastle united
'university with man from football club' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'fresh actors next to the french' is the wordplay.
'fresh' becomes 'new' (associated in meaning).
'actors' becomes 'cast' (group of actors).
'next' becomes 'united' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (I've seen this in other clues).
'the french' becomes 'le' ('the' in French).
'united' after 'le' is 'leunited'.
'new'+'cast'+'leunited'='NEWCASTLE UNITED'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for newcastle united that I've seen before include "Tyneside football team" , "Sports team" .)
