Nottingham Forest boss Vitor Pereira said “everything can happen” when asked if Elliot Anderson could be sold this summer.

Speaking following his side’s 3-2 defeat to United, Pereira said: “He has the talent to be one of the top of the top, every time he can score more goals, especially he can be a little bit more take a bit more the risk in the last third, he has a very good shot.

“It depends on the system. If we give him total freedom to build the play I think he can do everything but we are playing with two midfielders, if he loses every time the position, we have one midfielder.

“It is a system that doesn’t give him total freedom to create. He needs to understand when the other one loses the position, he cannot but he has a lot of talent and is young and will fly with big wings.

When asked if Anderson would stay at the City Ground, he responded: “This is an answer that I don’t have. The market is the market, everything can happen. What I can say to you is the club wants to keep him playing for us for sure.

“The club wants to keep the players. This is a very good group with quality, with character and we are in a very good place for the next season.”
