Manchester United will need to find a playmaking successor to Bruno Fernandes at some point and, amid links to Elliot Anderson, Rene Meulensteen has told GOAL that Nottingham Forest star Morgan Gibbs-White may be the man to tick that box. One raid on the City Ground for an England international midfielder is already being mooted, but should the Red Devils be eyeing a different target?

Having seen Anderson rise to prominence on the back of his 2024 transfer from Tyneside to Trentside, the former Newcastle star is now an established England international that should have a leading role to play for the Three Lions at this summer’s World Cup.

His asking price is likely to increase if a starring role is played on the grandest of sporting stages, with it already being suggested that Forest could be looking for £100 million-plus ($136m) for the talented 23-year-old.
