Vincent Kompany’s Bayern Munich are making moves to sign Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City midfield target Elliot Anderson.
Elliot Anderson’s impressive rise at Nottingham Forest hasn’t gone unnoticed, as multiple top clubs from across Europe are after his signature. According to a report from Fichajes, Bayern Munich are keen on acquiring the services of the English international, as they look to reinforce their midfield next summer.
The German giants have started making moves to strike a deal with the Tricky Trees for the 23-year-old, who is also on the wishlist of Premier League heavyweights, Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City.
Anderson came up the ranks at Newcastle United, and he got promoted to the first team in the summer of 2022. He showcased a lot of promise while playing for the Magpies, but they ended up sanctioning his departure in the summer of 2024 because of their financial situation.
Nottingham made the most out of it and secured his services for over €41 million. He has only gone from strength to strength since joining them. Not only has he established himself as one of their mainstays, but he is also widely regarded as one of the best midfielders in the Premier League.
Premier League giants want Anderson
Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City are all very impressed with his performances. They have sent scouts to watch him in action on multiple occasions and would absolutely love to secure his services next summer.
With Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes’ future uncertain, Anderson could become one of the cornerstones of United’s project going forward. Meanwhile, he is a perfect fit for Chelsea’s transfer policy that revolves around signing the best young players.
While City have a stacked midfield, Anderson could be a sensational acquisition for them with Rodri struggling to stay fit. Pep Guardiola’s team have already established initial contacts with his camp.
Bayern Munich to rival English trio
However, all three Premier League clubs are set to face stiff competition from Vincent Kompany’s Bayern Munich. The Belgian manager is desperate to add more quality to his midfield and considers the 23-year-old just the perfect fit for his system. Bayern have already started working towards a potential deal to sign him.
They are making moves to beat the English clubs to his signature. Bayern are willing to offer him a stable project, an important role in the team, and the opportunity to compete for all major titles. Since a winter move is already off the table, the German club will wait until the end of the season before taking concrete steps to sign him.
