Elanga’s Epic Transfer Tale…
In the wildest game of piggy bank head-butting, Manchester United fans find themselves perched like owls, waiting to see if they’ll snag a cheeky £7 million from Anthony Elanga’s potential move to Newcastle United. Once a Red, Anthony slipped his way to Nottingham Forest, where he’s been strutting his stuff like a Swedish Zlatan with turbo-charged boots, tallying up 6 goals and 12 assists like they were Pokémon cards.
Now, the Geordie giants, Newcastle United, are lining up their magpies to swoop him up for a whopping £50 million, pairing him with fellow Swede, Alexander Isak. A first offer of £45 million got kicked into the Tyne like a misfired penalty, so they’ve lobbed a second attempt over the transfer wall. Meanwhile, Manchester United, clutching a 20% sell-on clause like it’s the Holy Grail of football finance, are eagerly counting potential profits faster than Ronaldo’s step-overs.
If Forest decide to sell, United might just find themselves with a windfall big enough to buy-a-boots-and-socks or maybe even chip into their ambitious shopping list, which includes unicorn-like transfers for strikers, midfielders, and more – though magic beans might come cheaper. Will £7 million transform Red Devils’ summer shopping spree into a ‘Cash-ico’? Only time, and transfer sagas galore, will tell!
