'Manchester United Escape Myth'Antony Elanga will move to the European Champions League (UCL).
The BBC reported on the 9th (Korea time) 'Newcastle and Nottingham Forest have agreed to a £55 million deal for Elanga.
The BBC said: "'Newcastle entered the UCL in fifth place last season and wanted to reinforce their attacking options. Elanga scored six goals and 11 assists in the English Premier League (EPL) last season. Newcastle wanted to sign Elanga because he had an outstanding performance in the league. It made aggressive moves with a high effective shooting rate, and did not miss an opportunity,' it said.

Elanga left Manchester United for Nottingham Forest ahead of the 2023-2024 season. The transfer fee was not high either. Despite being a prospect from Manchester United, he left the team for 15 million pounds (about 27 billion won). Elangazi, who had high expectations for his debut in Manchester United's first team under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, was an inevitable choice because Erik tenhach gradually lost his position. The high speed, which is a strength, did not shine at Manchester United, and the decision in front of the gate was regrettable.
Elanga's move to Nottingham was a major turning point in his career. Elanga, who began to be coached by Nunu Santo after his move to Nottingham, began to explode his potential. With tremendous effort, he began to add several advantages as he was reborn as a muscular man from his skinny Manchester United days. He played in the league in his first season alone with five goals and nine assists, and this season surpassed last season's record with six goals and 12 assists in 43 official games.

Newcastle immediately paid attention to Elanga's performance. Newcastle, who will play in the UCL next season, urgently needed to strengthen their offense. Elanga succeeded in reinforcing side resources with the recruitment of Elanga, and gained another strong attack option after Aleksandar Isaac and Anthony Gordon. Nottingham also sold Elanga, brought in for a small fee, for a high fee.
Elanga has already reportedly headed to Newcastle. Britain's Sky Sports said the transfer is set to be completed, saying 'Elanga has arrived in Newcastle'
