Nottingham Forest manager Vitor Pereira has admitted that he cannot guarantee midfielder Elliot Anderson will remain at the club next season. The highly sought-after England international is currently attracting intense interest from both Manchester United and Manchester City.
Offering a candid assessment when asked for an update on Anderson‘s future, Vitor revealed that, despite not having a direct answer to that question, he believes the midfielder is destined for the top.
He added that Elliot’s incredible rise in football is even more applaudable after his mother’s death.
His words, “I cannot say [whether he will stay], I don’t have the answer. I know he deserves the top of the world. I know that he’s our player, and we need to enjoy him because I have worked with the top talent players, but to find a top player with this character is not easy. I’m not thinking about the next season. I’m thinking about finishing this season in the best position that we can.
It’s difficult for me, and everybody, to understand what he is feeling inside of him. In the warm-up, my assistants, they said to me, ‘Elliot is on fire today.’ Every time that he shot on goal, he scored. He had the funeral of his mother two days ago, I didn’t speak with him, but I believe that he wants to honour his mother with a goal.”
WOW.
