Manchester City evaluates midfield signings of Elliot Anderson and Enzo Fernández

Manchester City’s pursuit of Scottish midfielder Elliot Anderson has drawn comments from club teammate Kyle Walker, who warned that a £130 million signing could affect the role of current midfield anchor Rodri. Walker questioned whether both players could coexist in the starting eleven and stressed the need to keep the squad balanced.

City are also monitoring Chelsea’s Argentine midfielder Enzo Fernández. Chelsea have set an asking price of roughly £120 million to recoup their investment, but Manchester City may find the fee steep, especially if they secure Anderson. Fernández, 25, finished the season with 15 goals and seven assists for Chelsea and is under contract until 2032. The club’s interest reflects a desire to add depth and quality to their midfield, though financial considerations could steer them toward alternative targets.
