Elliot Anderson's Manchester City transfer on hold until after Panama match
Summary

Thomas Tuchel has stated that Elliot Anderson’s transfer to Manchester City cannot be completed until after England's match against Panama in the FIFA World Cup. A £116 million deal had been agreed with Nottingham Forest, but the formal completion is delayed due to Anderson's participation in the tournament and a minor injury. Tuchel indicated the transfer process is ongoing but cited the importance of focusing on the match. Assistant coach Enzo Maresca expects Anderson to be the first signing once the transfer is finalized after the group stage game on Saturday.
