Manchester United offers big salary to sign Elliot Anderson

Manchester United are prepared to make a substantial salary increase to sign 22‑year‑old midfielder Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest. Current reports say the club, backed by co‑owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, may offer a wage at least 50 % higher than Anderson’s present £100,000‑a‑week earnings, with a transfer fee requested by Forest of around £105 million that could rise to £110 million.

The interest in Anderson is part of a broader set of Premier League transfer rumours, including talks by Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba about a possible move to United and speculation over other players such as Karl Darlow and Sam Johnstone. However, the focus remains on securing Anderson to strengthen United’s midfield for the upcoming season.
