Manchester City is seriously preparing for the upcoming summer transfer window, and the club has already set its main objective. Pep Guardiola's team has prioritized acquiring Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson.
According to insiders, Nottingham intends to let the young English player go for at least £120 million. City is trying to partially reduce this amount and is preparing a bid of around £80-100 million.
🔵 Why is Anderson at the center of City's attention?
22-year-old Elliot Anderson has made 12 appearances in the Premier League this season, scoring one goal and providing one assist. So far, the statistics don't seem large, but their dynamics, technical skills, and pressing prowess have already caught the attention of major clubs.
Although Transfermarkt valued Anderson at €45 million, it's common for domestic transfers to be highly valued in the English market - so it's not surprising that Nottingham demands €120 million.
🔵 Contractual environment
The player's current contract runs until the summer of 2029. Nottingham Forest sees the young talent at the center of their main project and is not interested in letting him go at a low price.
However, City has experience with big transfers - if Guardiola personally demands it, why not try?
🔵 Conclusion
Anderson's move to City is still under negotiation, but this deal is expected to be one of the most interesting transfers this summer. The young and energetic footballer could develop further under Guardiola.
