Manchester City have made an offer to Nottingham Forest worth up to 120m for Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson, according to The Athletic.  

The bid is 106m with potential add-ons taking the deal to in excess of 120m. 

Forest reportedly want the fixed fee for Anderson to eclipse the 125m British record Liverpool paid Newcastle United for Alexander Isak last summer.

Anderson has three years remaining on his contract at the City Ground after signing from Newcastle for 35m in 2023.

'McKenna leaves with legend status secured'

Your Site' Ali Stafford: 

Kieran McKenna has brought generational joy to Ipswich Town and their fans during his time in Suffolk, with him leaving an early setback in their ambition for Premier League survival.

McKennas back-to-back promotions from League One to a first Premier League campaign in 22 years exceeded expectations, but the squad rebuild last summer that ultimately led to an immediate return to the top-flight was arguably just as impressive.

The Northern Irishman can leave Ipswich this summer with his club legend status secured, having won three promotions in four years and delivered levels of success not seen at Portman Road in decades.

An opportunity to join an established Premier League club would surely have been an attempting proposition to McKenna and a logical next step in his career, having seen his reputation continue to grow during his time at Ipswich, so the decision to take a break will come as surprise.

Relegation however expected - was the only blotch on McKennas report card during his time at Ipswich. He leaves behind a squad better equipped to stay in the Premier League than the one he took up two years ago, although a big summer of recruitment for Ipswich now extends beyond just players. 

McKenna stepping down as Ipswich boss

Kieran McKenna is stepping down as Ipswich manager and will take a break from football.

McKenna had been linked with the vacancy at Fulham but Your Site News has been told he will not be taking over at Craven Cottage, nor any other club in the near future.

Ipswich are protected financially should he decide to take up a new role in the next 12 months. 

They would be due compensation in line with the remaining time left in his contract up until the one-year mark. The current figure stands at around 7m. 

Spurs confirm Senesi signing

 Tottenham have confirmed the arrival of Marcos Senesi as a free agent. 

The Argentina defender will officially join the club on July 1 when his contract at Bournemouth expires.

Speaking in a statement, Senesi said: "It's a very special feeling to be a Tottenham Hotspur player.

"From the first moment, the club has shown why they want me and how much they want me to be a part of what they are building. It's exciting and something I can't wait to be involved in.

"Every time I step on the pitch, I will do my best to make the fans proud and to take the club back to the place it belongs. 

"I want to win things with Tottenham and will do everything I can to make that happen."

Senesi now joins Andy Robertson in signing for Spurs as a free agent, as Roberto De Zerbi secures two signings to bolster his defensive options ahead of next season. 

The club are also hoping to sign Jan Paul van Hecke from Brighton. Brighton revealed on Sunday they have rejected two bids for the Dutch defender. 

Spurs are believed to be encouraged by van Heckes desire to only sign for Spurs despite interest elsewhere.
