Elliot Anderson will line up against Manchester United today knowing that he might only have two games left at Nottingham Forest.
Anderson will head to the World Cup this summer as a Forest player, but he could well be on the move once England’s participation in that tournament comes to an end.
If we have to sell Elliot Anderson this summer, how much should we demand for his signature?🤑
The player is valued by Forest at around £120 million, with Manchester City and Manchester United leading the way for Anderson.
Michael Carrick knows all about being a top central midfielder and ahead of today’s game with United, he’s shared a verdict on Anderson.

What Michael Carrick has said about Elliot Anderson
Forest will look to finish the season in unbeaten fashion, with Vitor Pereira reviving the team’s fortunes from the dugout.
Anderson will be integral to Forest finishing well and ahead of today’s game against United, Carrick has heaped praise on the player that the Red Devils are linked with.
He told the press: “Yeah, he’s done well. I think he’s a big part of their team. I think he offers so much and they’ve got a really talented team and a dangerous team.”
Anderson has kicked on in the two seasons he’s been at Forest, going from a cup player at Newcastle to playing a starring role at the City Ground.
The number eight is a superb footballer and ultimately, if he does leave, Forest will have to make sure that he’s properly replaced.
Carrick clearly thinks Anderson could be the player to replace Casemiro at Old Trafford, but he will have to tempt United to dig deep if they’re to sign him.
With Pep Guardiola also keen on taking him to City, Marinakis is in a very strong position, and he would dearly like an auction to take place for his services.
