Manchester City secures Elliot Anderson, leaving Manchester United in the dust. The Nottingham Forest midfielder shines with a stunning equalizer at the Etihad, intensifying City’s interest. Anderson’s performance suggests he’s the future of City’s midfield, especially with Real Madrid eyeing Rodri. TEAMtalk insider Graeme Bailey confirms the deal is effectively agreed, stating, "Anderson to City is a done deal." City has pursued him since last summer, recognizing his energy and tactical intelligence as a perfect fit. This development is a significant setback for United, who are parting ways with Casemiro and likely offloading Manuel Ugarte. United may now shift focus to targets like Adam Wharton or Carlos Baleba. Anderson’s move is expected to cost around £90m (€103m, $120m), especially after his impressive showing. City trails Arsenal by seven points in the title race and faces Newcastle in the FA Cup next.
