Anderson Latest as Medical 'Booked' and Nottingham Forest Agreement Reached
Manchester City’s £116 million agreement for Elliot Anderson would set a club record, with the midfielder due for a medical while on England duty.
- Manchester City agreed a £116 million deal to sign Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson on Friday, with the 23-year-old scheduled to undergo a medical in New York after England's World Cup match against Panama on Saturday.
- Forest rejected Manchester City's first two bids of £106 million and £120 million before accepting the £116 million offer, which surpasses Arsenal's £105 million purchase of Declan Rice and Manchester City's £100 million Jack Grealish deal.
- Currently representing England at the World Cup, Anderson has started both group games and is expected to retain his position Saturday; teammate Jarell Quansah said he is a 'proper focused young lad' who will "go right to the top."
- The medical will take place in New York after England's Saturday match against Panama, with Manchester City in no rush to finalize personal terms after the World Cup concludes, respecting England manager Thomas Tuchel's tournament priorities.
- Manchester City beat Manchester United to secure Anderson but remain without a confirmed manager following Pep Guardiola's departure, though ex-Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca is expected to be appointed; City may pursue additional midfield reinforcements including Newcastle's Sandro Tonali.
