Mega transfer in the summer? England star is being traded at FC Bayern | OneFootball

FC Bayern continue to be linked with potential replacements for Leon Goretzka. Now a new name has emerged – and it’s a big one in terms of price. Elliot Anderson is said to be in the Munich club’s sights

According to reports in the Daily Mail, the German record champions are interested in the 23-year-old midfielder from Nottingham Forest, with Bayern having recently intensified their interest

The Englishman is regarded as a dynamic and versatile central player who can make his mark both defensively and offensively – a profile that would basically fit in well with the requirements at Säbener Straße

However, a potential transfer is likely to be anything but easy. According to the report, Nottingham Forest have set a price tag of around 80 million euros for Anderson

A sum that would represent a clear hurdle even for FC Bayern. Transfers of this magnitude are not the norm for the record champions – especially not for players who are not yet among the absolute best in the world

In addition, there is strong competition from England: alongside Munich, Manchester United and Manchester City are also said to be very interested in Anderson

The two Premier League clubs in particular are currently regarded as the most promising candidates in the bidding for the midfielder

Bayern also backs its own talents

Regardless of possible external solutions, FC Bayern already has several promising options in central midfield. In Tom Bischof, the squad includes a young, highly talented player who is expected to have a great future. In addition, Noel Aseko, who is currently on loan to Hannover 96, could return in the summer

Against this backdrop, a transfer of Anderson currently seems rather unlikely. Both the high transfer fee and the competitive situation speak against a quick deal.
