Elliot Anderson
23-Year-Old
Nottingham Forest
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Anderson made the move to Nottingham Forest from Newcastle last summer and immediately found a role, capturing a regular spot in the midfield. He started 33 of his 37 appearances for almost 2,800 minutes, numbers he was never going to see at Newcastle. Still, in terms of fantasy, he was stuck in more of a holding role for the majority of his minutes, limiting him to two goals from 40 shots and six assists on 37 chances created. A split role of set pieces helped his floor and will be something to target in the new season. Given that he found more of his footing in the latter half last campaign, it's reasonable to expect more goals and assists in 2025/26.
Scores Friday
Anderson scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 5-0 victory over Sunderland. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 58th minute.
ANALYSIS
Anderson got on the scoresheet with a nice finish during Friday's rout. The midfielder only put a single shot on goal during the match, but he made the most of it. He was excellent throughout and helped fire Forest to what is arguably their best, most complete, performance of the campaign.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
City confident on signing him
Manchester City are confident of signing Anderson in the summer, according to The Sun.
ANALYSIS
Anderson will join either Manchester United or Manchester City. Based on recent reports, though, it seems City will sign the England international and Nottingham Forest midfielder. The Citizens are confident in their chances of signing the playmaker, although any move for the talented playmaker would cost around $100 million. Manchester United are also expected to try to sign the Forest star, but any more would probably happen after the World Cup.
