The Red Devils have been proactive since the beginning of the month, and they have already secured a verbal agreement to land Atalanta midfielder Ederson in a deal worth \u00a335 million plus add-ons<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n Man United are lining up another midfield signing, and Romano\u00a0<\/em>has now revealed that the Red Devils are \u2018really interested\u2019 in securing the services of Anderson from Forest in the upcoming transfer<\/a> window.<\/p>\n The respected journalist added that Man City<\/a> have made the first transfer offer for the Englishman. Forest are reportedly eyeing more than \u00a3100 million to sanction the sale of the 23-year-old star.<\/p>\n Anderson has established himself as one of the most sought-after midfielders in the Premier League<\/a>. He only made his England debut last year but has already boarded the flight to North America for the World Cup. The ex-Newcastle United<\/a> man is widely expected to accompany Declan Rice<\/a> in the heart of the Three Lions\u2019 midfield at the tournament.<\/p>\n Man City seem determined to prise him away prior to the big showpiece, but Forest are playing hardball in negotiations. For United, Anderson would be a dream signing and an upgrade on Casemiro<\/a>, who is set to leave on a free transfer when his contract expires on June 30. Anderson had a tremendous 2025\/26 league season with an average of 8 duels & 3 tackles won with 8 recoveries<\/span><\/a> per game.<\/p>\n He also dazzled with his range of distribution and ability to make goal contributions for the Tricky Trees. He would be a better signing than Ederson for the Manchester giants, but a deal seems unlikely due to the huge valuation set. United have been more cautious with their spending over the past 18 months.<\/p>\n With the need to add more depth in the left-back, left wing and centre-forward positions, they may not spend more than \u00a3100 million to land Anderson. There are no plans to overpay or enter a bidding war<\/span><\/a> with Man City. The midfielder also appears to have made up his mind to join the Cityzens. Hence, United appear unlikely to sign him despite the concrete interest.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
According to journalist Fabrizio Romano<\/span><\/a>, Manchester United<\/a> are keen on landing the signature of Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson this summer.<\/strong><\/p>\n![\"Rememore](\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/FootballTalk_New_Chapter-rememore.png\")
