Manchester City is preparing to make a new offer for Elliot Andersen, which would set a record transfer fee in the history of this already wealthy club.
Previously, Nottingham Forest rejected a bid of €120 million plus bonuses. Now City are ready to offer up to €140 million for the England international midfielder. The player has already agreed to a long-term contract with the club.
There is an added layer of intrigue to this transfer saga. Manchester United have also shown interest in Andersen, though their activity in the transfer market has been less aggressive compared to City. The competition is justified, as Andersen has been one of the Premier League’s standout midfielders over the past two seasons, demonstrating his ability to be a pivotal, system-defining player—exactly the type of midfielder City currently need.
