Overview
- United are reported to be readying a structured package totalling about £60m to test Forest’s resolve, with no formal offer confirmed.
- Forest are described as under no pressure to sell and are expected to push for roughly £80m if talks advance.
- Anderson, 22, is an England international who left Newcastle for Forest in 2024 in a deal reported at around £35m and has since become a key starter.
- Rúben Amorim views Anderson’s pressing and box-to-box qualities as a fit for his system, though some analysts note he is not a natural No.6 to replace Casemiro.
- Reports suggest Anderson would be open to a move to Old Trafford, with Manchester City and Chelsea also linked, while a separate January move for Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite is viewed as unlikely.
