Nottingham Forest are preparing for a summer of intense interest in midfielder Elliot Anderson and have set a staggering asking price of £115 million, according to reports. The 23-year-old, who joined from Newcastle United for £35 million in 2024, has become a key player for Forest and earned seven England caps.
The club's valuation matches the fee Chelsea paid Brighton for Moises Caicedo in 2023, which would make Anderson the most expensive English player ever, surpassing Declan Rice's £105 million move to Arsenal. Manchester United and Manchester City are among the clubs linked, with interest expected to rise if Anderson impresses at the World Cup.
Manager Vitor Pereira has insisted the club will not be bullied into selling. 'The club wants to keep him playing for us, for sure,' he said. 'He has the talent to be one of the top, top of the top.' Anderson, however, has stated his focus is solely on the World Cup with England.
