Nottingham Forest Rejects Manchester City's £122m Bid for Elliot Anderson

In a bold move, Nottingham Forest has turned down Manchester City's latest offer of £122 million for midfielder Elliot Anderson. City’s second bid follows a previous attempt of £80 million for the 23-year-old, demonstrating their serious intent to bolster their squad. Forest's stance is firm, as they seek a British record transfer fee of £125 million, not including any add-ons. The proposed deal would see City pay a guaranteed £106 million plus £16 million in potential add-ons, which would break their own club record of £100 million paid for Jack Grealish. Anderson, who has been catching eyes with his performances, remains a key target for the Premier League champions as they look to enhance their midfield options.
