"Chelsea could use more defensive steel and physicality in the middle of the park, and Anderson would be a solid long-term acquisition. However, they would have to pay 100 million in order to get the deal done. They need to improve other areas of their squad as well. Spending 100 million on the midfielder might not be a wise decision. Improving the defence should be their priority instead. They need a reliable finisher as well, who can find the back of the net regularly."
"Meanwhile, Manchester United are desperate need of a reliable defensive midfielder like him. Casemiro will leave the club at the end of the season, and they need to replace him. It will be interesting to see whether they are willing to stump up 100 million to get the deal done. The report claims that Manchester City are favourites to land the England midfield this summer, and it remains to be seen how the situation develops."
Elliot Anderson has been linked with a move away from Nottingham Forest at the end of the season. Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City are competing for his signature. Anderson has performed outstandingly for Nottingham Forest since joining the club and is considered a quality player who deserves to compete at the highest level. Chelsea would benefit from his defensive steel and physicality but would need to pay 100 million, raising questions about transfer priorities. Manchester United need a defensive midfielder to replace Casemiro, while Newcastle are keeping tabs although a nine-figure fee seems unlikely.
