The website "Fichajes" revealed that German club Bayern Munich has placed English midfielder Elliot Anderson, the star of Nottingham Forest, at the top of their priority list to strengthen their midfield in the upcoming summer transfer window.

The Bavarian club sees the 23-year-old player as an ideal fit for its modern tactical plans, amid strong competition from major English clubs like Manchester City and Manchester United.

The website pointed out that Chelsea is also closely monitoring the player, while Nottingham Forest refuses to let Anderson leave before the end of his contract in June 2029. The English club values their player between £80 million and £100 million. However, Manchester City's management has initiated preliminary contacts with the player's representatives to negotiate a potential future transfer.

The site highlighted that Anderson joined Nottingham Forest in July 2024, coming from Newcastle United for over 41 million euros. This season, he has scored one goal and provided two assists in 21 official Premier League matches, demonstrating his ability to control the pace of the game, organize play with precise passes, and maintain high physical endurance.

The same source confirms that Bayern Munich values Anderson's versatility in midfield, allowing him to move freely between defense and attack, in line with the intense style of German football. This places him at the core of the club's plan to strengthen the midfield with physical strength and tactical skill.

The report added that Bayern Munich's management plans to wait until the summer transfer window to initiate final negotiations with Nottingham Forest, relying on the club's historical strength and European appeal, in an attempt to secure the transfer of Anderson, who is considered one of the most promising midfielders in Europe currently.
