Manchester City seal £130m agreement to sign Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest
Manchester City have reached an agreement with Nottingham Forest to sign England midfielder Elliot Anderson for a reported £130 million, making him one of the most expensive transfers in Premier League history.
Manchester City have agreed a deal worth a reported £130 million to sign Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson, according to The Athletic, bringing an end to a prolonged pursuit that has dominated the summer transfer window.
Anderson had been City’s primary transfer target since the season concluded, with the club submitting multiple bids exceeding £100 million before Forest finally accepted the latest offer, believed to be in the region of £130 million.
The England international’s move to the Etihad represents one of the most significant outlays in Premier League history, underlining City’s determination to reinforce their midfield options ahead of the new campaign.
Further details of the deal, including personal terms and the length of Anderson’s contract, are expected to be confirmed in the coming days as the transfer moves towards completion.
