Manchester City are leading the pursuit of Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson, with Fabrizio Romano confirming the club have been pushing strongly for the player for several months. Forest are holding firm at a price of more than 100 million pounds, and City are reported to be prepared to match that figure if a deal can be structured. The interest predates the departure of Pep Guardiola, with the club having identified Anderson as a top target well in advance.
Manchester United have also registered serious interest, though the financial demands remain a significant obstacle for both clubs. Anderson has been among the most impressive midfielders in the Premier League this season and Nottingham Forest have no obligation to sell. The club are set to conduct an end-of-season review in the coming days, after which further clarity on the situation is expected to emerge.
