Nottingham Forest have just confirmed an agreement with Manchester City for the transfer of Elliot Anderson. A sober, almost cold announcement that nevertheless hides a massive shockwave in the English transfer market. The midfielder will indeed leave Forest to join the Mancunian powerhouse.
It’s done! Elliot Anderson is signing for Manchester City. But first, he will finish a small competition: the World Cup. Forest specified that the necessary formalities will be completed in due course, allowing the player to remain fully focused on the tournament with England, where he is currently representing the Three Lions. Behind the scenes, however, the deal is already sealed: Elliot Anderson will become a Manchester City player.
A record-breaking transfer for Manchester City
The official fee has not been disclosed by Nottingham Forest. However, according to unofficial figures circulating, the deal could reach €135 million. A colossal amount that would make Anderson one of the most significant transfers of the summer and confirm Manchester City’s intention to make a huge statement.
For Forest, it is obviously a huge sporting loss. Elliot Anderson had established himself as one of the club’s standout figures over the past two seasons. His energy, work rate, and development had caught the attention of the biggest English clubs. City ultimately accelerated and secured the deal.
Nottingham Forest also took the opportunity to pay tribute to their player, stating that a proper acknowledgment of his exceptional contribution will be made at the appropriate time. For now, the club wants to avoid disrupting their midfielder, who remains focused on the World Cup with England. For Manchester City, this transfer sends a strong message across Europe: even with an already star-studded squad, the club continues to strengthen with young, powerful players already proven in the Premier League. And at €135 million, Elliot Anderson arrives with immense pressure on his shoulders.
