Today’s biggest transfer stories

Manchester City and Manchester United will battle it out to sign Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson this summer. The Manchester clubs have both made signing the 23-year-old, who is expected to play a big role in the World Cup for England, as their top priority and may end up paying in excess of €70 million.

Chelsea have received a boost in their reported bid to sign Julián Alvarez from Atlético Madrid after Barcelona sporting director Deco confirmed they have not held talks over a move for the Argentinian. The striker has scored 13 goals this season and has a market value of €100 million.

Inter Milan are ready to follow up on their interest in Curtis Jones in the summer. The Nerazzurri approached Liverpool about a loan deal in January but saw their approach rebuffed. However, his contract situation means the Reds could cash in on the 25-year-old.
