    Manchester City last week had an opening bid for midfielder Elliot Anderson rejected by Nottingham Forest.

    The 23-year-old England international tops City's list of midfield targets following the departure of captain Bernardo Silva, and sources say they are expected to make another bid.

    City have long admired Anderson and will not be swayed from paying a significant fee, which could become a record fee for a British player.

    Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis is known to be a tough negotiator and is understood to want more than the £105m Arsenal paid to sign midfielder Declan Rice from West Ham in 2023.

    Anderson is currently at the World Cup, but England boss Thomas Tuchel has said squad members will have permission to finalise transfers provided it does not significantly affect the team's preparations.

    BBC Sport has previously reported Anderson is leaning towards a move to City over rivals Manchester United.
