Man City nearing agreement for Nottingham Forest's Elliot Anderson

Manchester City is in the final stages of negotiations to acquire midfielder Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest. Talks are ongoing between the two clubs as they work out the last details of a deal, with City having previously submitted two bids that were turned down. A £110 million upfront fee has been indicated by Forest's owner, Evangelos Marinakis, for the 23-year-old England international. Anderson has emerged as a key target for City, particularly following the departure of club captain Bernardo Silva. If completed, the transfer could finalize soon, as Anderson is expected to undergo medicals while on international duty at the FIFA World Cup.
