World-Class Transfer: Manchester City Shatters Records with England International Signing
England international Elliot Anderson has completed his move from Nottingham Forest to Manchester City, both clubs officially announced. The deal, valued at a record-breaking €136 million (£116 million) for a British player, instantly makes the midfielder Manchester City's most expensive acquisition in their history.
Reports from England indicate that Anderson will sign a five-year contract with Manchester City, which includes an option to extend for an additional 12 months. His weekly wages at the Etihad Stadium are expected to be around £300,000.
“Manchester City and Nottingham Forest have reached an agreement for the transfer of Elliot Anderson.
The 23-year-old Anderson is currently with the England squad at the World Cup and has already completed his medical examinations in Kansas. The official finalization of the transfer will occur upon his return to England.
In the meantime, everyone at Manchester City wishes Elliot and the England national team success in their World Cup campaign and looks forward to welcoming him to Manchester soon,” read the statement from the Citizens.
