Manchester United Shifts Attention to Elliot Anderson Following Carlos Baleba’s Snag

Manchester United is now reportedly eyeing Newcastle’s Elliot Anderson after their attempts to recruit Carlos Baleba fell through.

Shifting Targets in Midfield

Initially, United had expressed strong interest in Brighton’s Baleba. However, they were discouraged by the hefty price tag of over £100 million set by the club.

Strategic Midfield Changes Ahead

Ruben Amorim aims to revamp his midfield lineup for the upcoming season and has expressed interest in the 22-year-old England international from Nottingham Forest.

According to reports from The Mirror, Anderson has emerged as the primary target for United as he rapidly gains recognition for his performances at both the club and international levels.

It is believed that United sees Anderson as an ideal candidate who would seamlessly integrate into Amorim’s preferred style of play and strategic framework.
