Michael Carrick has given his thoughts on Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson, saying the Manchester United target “offers so much” to his side. Anderson is high on United’s shortlist this summer, but Manchester City are currently in pole position to sign him.
Anderson has established himself as one of the Premier League’s finest midfielders since his move to Forest from Newcastle, and he is set to start for England at this summer’s World Cup.
United view Anderson as a potential replacement for Casemiro, who is set to leave this summer. The Reds have planned for significant investment to sign a successor for the Brazilian, but Forest have placed a £100million price tag on Anderson.
United will not be drawn into a bidding war with City, but they remain interested in signing the midfielder, who will make an appearance at Old Trafford when Forest visit on Sunday afternoon.
