Elliot Anderson is in ‘no rush’ to sort out his future as Premier League giants eye the Nottingham Forest star.

That’s according to Sky Sports who say Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United are all monitoring a player who has progressed massively since joining the Reds.

That was in the summer of 2024 as Newcastle wrestled to comply with financial regulations and sold Anderson to Forest for around £35million.

Eighty-three appearances have catapulted him into the England midfield for the upcoming World Cup and seen his value sky-rocket.

They have also led to speculation he could be lured away from the City Ground in the summer with the biggest names in English football circling.

But Sky have been told Anderson has no intention of deciding anything before the World Cup and that ‘there have been no conversations yet with any intermediaries of other clubs’. This comes despite some claiming a move to City is already a 'done deal'.

Anderson still has three years left on his contract and it is reported the Reds want to build around rather than sell the 23-year-old.

The report adds ‘Anderson is ambitious but his loyalty right now is with Nottingham Forest’, before then shifting to helping England in North America.
