"What people don't understand about the Anderson deal this is a kid who was Newcastle through and through. He didn't want to leave Newcastle United. He was forced out due to PSR. What happened was that Liverpool agreed a deal for Anthony Gordon, and Jarell Quansah was going to go the other way. Then at the last minute, Yankuba Minteh went to Brighton and Forest came in for Elliot Anderson, and the incomings allowed Newcastle to pull the plug on the Gordon deal."
"Anderson's love for Newcastle hasn't gone away. There is that pre-existing connection to Newcastle. Now you have Ross Wilson, who is the sporting director at Newcastle, who did the deal to bring him to Nottingham Forest. From the Newcastle point of view if Elliot Anderson was available at value, they would still be open to re-signing him despite the fact they have Joelinton, Bruno Guimaraes and Sandro T"
Elliot Anderson is a former Newcastle youth who left because of Premier League squad registration (PSR) issues after a complex transfer chain involving Anthony Gordon, Jarell Quansah and Yankuba Minteh. Liverpool had agreed a deal for Gordon with Quansah moving the other way, but Minteh's move to Brighton and Forest's entry for Anderson altered plans and allowed Newcastle to cancel the Gordon transfer. Manchester United have identified Anderson as a target and value him around £60–70m. Ross Wilson's recent switch from Forest to Newcastle as sporting director creates a useful connection. Newcastle could re-sign Anderson if he becomes available at the right value despite existing midfield options.
