Manchester City Tipped as Leading Destination for Forest’s Elliot Anderson as Fresh ‘Done Deal’ Claims Surface

Nottingham Forest are expected to seek well over £70m for the England midfielder following his eye-catching Etihad equaliser.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report that transfer insider Graeme Bailey has told TEAMtalk the move to Manchester City is considered a “done deal,” with City said to have tracked Anderson for months.
  • TalkSPORT reports cited by Yahoo and Sky say City are poised to step up their pursuit and are believed to be preferred by Anderson over Manchester United, with Liverpool and Chelsea also linked.
  • Forest’s valuation is widely reported at above £70m, with figures of £90m to £100m mentioned in some coverage as interest from top clubs intensifies.
  • Anderson’s 76th‑minute equaliser in Forest’s 2-2 draw at the Etihad is credited in reports with reinforcing City’s push, though neither club has confirmed an agreement.
  • Despite ‘done deal’ claims, uncertainty remains as Football Insider highlights bookmaker odds that still favor Anderson staying at Forest, and experts suggest Forest could be pressured to sell key players this summer.
