According to TBR, Anthony Elanga will cost at least £60 million if he were to leave Nottingham Forest in the summer. The Swedish winger has attracted massive interest from top teams, with the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Aston Villa and Newcastle United keen.
Anthony Elanga has had a fantastic season with Nottingham Forest despite Nuno Espirito Santo’s side falling short of those Champions League places. Without top-tier European football, there’s a big possibility some of their stars like the Swede could depart the club, as he has plenty of interest in the background.
Arsenal are linked with a move for the Swede, as Mikel Arteta continues to look for a right-footed winger for his attacking setup. There are big links to Rodrygo as things stand, but the possibility of signing Elanga also gives the Gunners boss a different tactical option in the attacking third.
Whether they view the 23-year-old PL winger as a key target remains to be seen as there are considerable doubts about that. Meanwhile, Chelsea might be in a similar boat, as they are in the market for a winger, but have set sights on the likes of Jamie Gittens as a priority target.
Aston Villa are also keen, with Leon Bailey likey to leave the club as Unai Emery could view Elanga as a potential replacement. The chances of either of those three teams may have depended on Nottingham Forest’s asking price, as they have set a £60 million demand on the 23-year-old PL winger.
Newcastle United have retained an interest in Elanga, as they were keen even last summer. There’s a clear need for Eddie Hopwe to bolster his attacking setup as the Nottingham Forest star could reunite with national teammate Alexander Isak in that Magpies front three.
As things stand, The Magpies might be the most interesting side in Elanga, although the £60 million price tag might prove problematic. For now, many of the interested clubs might keep their mind open about the 23-year-old PL winger, although it is Newcastle United who might have an upper hand considering they might have done plenty of groundwork on the attacker.
