He received extreme praise, but the transfer became difficult.
The British Telegraph reported on the 17th (Korea time) 'Nottingham values Elliott andson at more than 100 million pounds (about 190 billion won).
The Telegraph said 'Anderson can move if he has more than £100 million, but there is no immediate possibility of a January transfer. Nottingham is poised to take a hard line on his future course. Anderson is expected to be the next England player to register a transfer fee of more than £100m. It could be the latest England star to hit £100m worth since Jack Grealish and Declan Rice. Manchester United and his former club Newcastle United are now interested. However, Nottingham said it would not consider selling in January.
It will then be decided by 'Nottingham's owner, Evangelos Marinakis, who will determine his value and demand an amount to match the market value. Therefore, Nottingham could ask for more than £100 million in his transfer fee. "He is currently a key player under Thomas Tuchel ahead of the 2026 World Cup."

Anderson, who first made his professional debut after playing for Newcastle's youth team in 2021, then went on loan at Bristol Rovers and gained full-fledged English Premier League (EPL) experience at Newcastle. Nottingham paid attention to Anderson's talent, which was not yet in full bloom, and he spent a considerable amount of money on his transfer.
Nottingham's choice was a great foresight. After his move, Anderson was at the heart of Nottingham's midfield, showing his best performance. He played in 37 EPL games in the 2024-2025 season and scored two goals and six assists. It is considered one of the players who greatly helped Nottingham succeed in advancing to the Europa League under Nunu Santo last season. He has grown into one of the leading three-line midfielders in the EPL midfield due to his enormous amount of activity, stable foot skills, and excellent kick and provision rights.
Anderson's performance also received favorable reviews. Thomas Tuchel, who is calling him a member of the national team, said, `He is the core of the national team. He's the best midfielder in the league, and that's why he starts. He deserved it because he kept impressing himself."

He even made a comparison with Park Ji-sung. England's Manchester World is 'Anderson's strength is his endless amount of activity, reminiscent of Park Ji-sung, who was loved by Manchester United fans. Park Ji-sung played an essential but unnoticed role in the heyday led by head coach Alex Ferguson. Anderson praised Park, saying, `He has the potential to reach Park Ji-sung level.'
There was no stopping the attention that poured in with the performance. Several big clubs, including Real Madrid, Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea and Newcastle, are already salivating at him. In particular, Manchester United is the team that desperately wants to recruit. Manchester United, which made up the third term with Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro this season, is the most urgent reinforcement point in the midfield. In the previous summer transfer market, Carlos Valieva was targeted, but it did not happen. Now turn to Anderson and want Park Ji-sung in the Amorim era.

The problem is the transfer fee. Even if it declares no sale in the winter transfer market, Anderson is likely to be on the market in the summer transfer market. As Nottingham is said to demand at least £100 million, it is not unreasonable to break the record transfer fee for an English player. The highest transfer fee ever for an English player is £105 million recorded by Rice at the time of transfer to Arsenal. It may be a difficult amount for Manchester United to afford easily.
Along with the tremendous evaluation, interest in Anderson, who has emerged as the core of Nottingham, is pouring in. The more interest and evaluation of him increases, the more difficult it will be for the team that wants him to sign him from next summer. It is not always easy to transfer even for a player who is too popular.
