Transfer news today 26/12: Atletico targets former MU star; Tottenham aims big

According to journalist David Ornstein, the "Red Devils" are moving to acquire Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson. MU is set to compete with Man City, Bayern Munich, and Chelsea for the English midfielder’s signature. Anderson is contracted with Nottingham until 2029. Facing financial difficulties, City Ground’s club demands £100 million for the transfer.

The 23-year-old midfielder is notable for his precise passing, defensive skills, and strong dueling ability. This season, he has played 1530 minutes, scoring 1 goal and assisting once. Should MU succeed, they will gain a quality player to partner Bruno Fernandes in midfield. However, Anderson’s £100 million price requires careful consideration as the "Red Devils" need reinforcements not only in midfield but also on the left wing.
