Anthony Elanga feels the gap between United and Forest isn’t “that big.”
After a quiet season at Old Trafford, when he was mostly restricted to a bench duty in Erik ten Hag’s first season, the 21-year-old was eager to get more game time.
Forest were quick to express their interest in the Carrington graduate, and having narrowly avoided relegation in the final parts of the 2022/2023 season, Steve Cooper was keen to revamp his squad ahead of another season in the top division.
Anthony Elanga feels the gap between United and Forest isn’t “that big.”
Elanga was one of many new arrivals at the City Ground during the transfer window, and the Sweden international has already made eight Premier League appearances, scoring once and assisting once. His first goal came in a thrilling 1-0 win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in early September.
Elanga compares United and Forest
After settling in the Midlands, Elanga likened his new club to his old, saying Fotballskanalen: “Forest are still a great team historically.” They have two Champions League titles. So you might say I’ve moved from one large team to another. The change isn’t that significant.”
