Manchester United believe that they will be able to beat Manchester City to the signing of midfielder Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest, according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano.
Romano said about Anderson on his YouTube channel: “Nottingham Forest want to ask a record, a really important fee for the midfielder, so I think it’s going to be a big financial battle also to understand who is going to make Nottingham Forest happy for Anderson.
“For sure, Manchester City already started talking with the agents of the player, but Manchester United remain in conversations for Elliot Anderson.
“Manchester United are not giving up.
“They know that Manchester City started their plan to sign the player already a long time ago, but until the deal is done, Man Utd want to be there.
“Man Utd want to try, and Man Utd believe that having the opportunity eventually to offer Champions League football to the player, well, that could be important in order to try to get closer to Manchester City in this race.
“But then what can make the difference is the negotiation with Nottingham Forest, is who’s going to pay what Nottingham Forest want.
“So, Elliot Anderson, for sure, is a big name to follow.”
