"Man United have been looking at Anderson, he told Football Insider. He's done a tremendous job at Nottingham Forest and then he's come into the England side and turned in a man-of-the-match performance. United see him as exactly the type of midfielder they would like to bring in. He gets up and down the park, he's confident and secure in possession of the ball, and he's not afraid to put in a tackle which is something they need. Anderson would solve, or certainly help with, a lot of the issues they've had under Amorim."
"The Red Devils wanted a new midfielder this summer but they failed to sign a player in that position. They were strongly linked with a move for Brighton's Carlos Baleba but the Premier League side played hard ball and decided to keep the midfielder as United's interest became serious late in the transfer window. With midfield needing restructuring and several targets proving unattainable, Anderson emerges as a potential bargain, albeit still a prized asset for Forest."
Manchester United are monitoring Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson as a possible midfield recruit after failing to sign a midfielder in the summer transfer window. United were linked with Brighton's Carlos Baleba but the club chose to retain him as United's interest intensified late in the window. Elliot Anderson, 22, has impressed over the past year and earned a man-of-the-match performance for England against Andorra. Former United chief scout Mick Brown confirms United interest and highlights Anderson's ability to drive up and down the pitch, keep possession, and make tackles. Anderson could address several midfield issues at Old Trafford while remaining a valuable asset for Forest.
