Interest in Anderson, who completed a £35 million transfer from Newcastle to Forest last summer, is said to have intensified over the year, making him a priority target. However, Nottingham Forest are understood to be reluctant to let a key player depart in the middle of the campaign. Still, United are keeping a close watch on Anderson's status following the managerial shift at Forest, which saw Ange Postecoglou succeed Nuno Espirito Santo, in the event that any disruption provides an opportunity to begin talks. While Team Talk also reports that Brighton's Carlos Baleba is considered Amorim's ideal signing, a winter transfer for him is deemed improbable. Anderson's current deal with Forest runs until June 2029, and his Transfermarkt valuation is listed at €32 million.
