Overview
- Transfer reporter Florian Plettenberg, via Sky in Germany, says United have registered concrete interest and contacted Nottingham Forest regarding the 23-year-old midfielder.
- Forest’s stance reflects a steep valuation in the £100m–£120m range, with the player tied to a long-term deal after joining from Newcastle in 2024.
- United are assessing their options, with reporting indicating board caution over another nine-figure outlay despite the player being admired internally.
- Liverpool remain in the frame, with earlier interest also reported from Manchester City and Chelsea, keeping a multi-club pursuit in play.
- Forest view Anderson as central to their campaign and are reluctant to approve a sale during the season unless an exceptional offer arrives.
