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.
Suspended in Europa League
Anderson is ruled out of Thursday's Europa League first leg against FC Porto by UEFA due to suspension.
ANALYSIS
Anderson is one of Nottingham Forest's most important midfield pieces and their go-to guy on set pieces, so his absence is a major hit heading into the first leg of the Europa League. Nicolas Dominguez is expected to pick up more minutes in his spot, but replacing Anderson's presence in the middle and his dead-ball quality in a high-pressure European matchup will not be easy against the Dragaos. Forest will likely look to keep this one tight in the first leg and then hope to get him back at full strength for the return leg next week.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Arsenal exploring deal
Arsenal are set to explore a move for Anderson in the summer, according to Caughtoffside.
ANALYSIS
Anderson is set to leave Nottingham Forest in the summer, and the main question seems to be where he'll end up playing once the 2026/27 season begins. The central midfielder, who's under contract at Nottingham Forest, is expected to represent England in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. A good showing there could ultimately determine where he'll end up. Manchester City are also keen on the central midfielder.
