The Premier League’s biggest transfer saga is drawing to a close. Manchester City have pulled off a mega-transfer that promises to go down as one of the priciest in the history of British football.
Details: According to insider Fabrizio Romano, Elliot Anderson is set to join the Citizens. Reports indicate that after the final round of negotiations, both parties have reached a handshake agreement.
The deal accelerated towards the finish line last week, and today Anderson himself approached the Forest management with a request to let him join Manchester.
The total value of the transfer, including all bonuses, will reach a staggering £130 million. The player will undergo the mandatory medical in the USA, where he is currently on duty with the England national team.
It’s worth noting that this season, the English midfielder made 50 appearances for Nottingham across all competitions, scoring 5 goals and providing 4 assists. Transfermarkt values the player at €75 million.
Reminder: Manchester City will soon have a new head coach.
