"The talented young England international has been earning rave reviews in recent times, including for his performance against Serbia last night that has surely all but cemented his place as a starter for Thomas Tuchel's side at the 2026 World Cup. According to Fichajes, Arsenal are now desperate to win the race for Elliot, with their report also mentioning interest from Manchester United and Chelsea."
"The report makes it clear that Anderson won't come cheap, with 100m or more possibly set to be required to convince Forest to sell.

Arsenal have joined other major clubs in pursuing Nottingham Forest central midfielder Elliot Anderson, with Manchester United and Chelsea also showing interest. Forest may demand £100m or more to sanction a sale. Anderson, 23, earned praise for his England performance against Serbia and is viewed as a likely starter for Thomas Tuchel's 2026 World Cup squad. Tuchel called him one of the Premier League's best midfielders. Statistical comparisons show Anderson leads Declan Rice and Martin Zubimendi in possession wins and duels, while matching elite players in forward and progressive passing, fitting Arsenal's preferred style.
