Even though Anthony Elanga was proficient in his few opportunities at Old Trafford, Ten Hag let him to join Nottingham Forest for just £15 million.
Following that point, Elanga has made a strong impression at the City Ground. Although become Tricky Tree’s primary offensive players.
Anthony Elanga startled Gary Lineker and Micah Richards
Gossiping on The Rest Is Football podcast, both pundit praise the ex-Manchester United winger. So far Richard said:
“Elanga coming to the club, somewhere he was surplus to requirements.”
Linker replied: “I quite liked him at Manchester United, I thought he had something. I just thought he had something about him. I was surprised they let him go actually.”
Then Richard added: “I was surprised as well. He has scored a couple and played really well. Some good celebrations as well!,”
Based on this deal and Elanga’s performance at Nottingham Forest, it appears that two things have occurred.
First of all, Elanga may have been let go by United earlier in the season than they could have done with him.
Also, it’s obvious that Forest got a steal for just £15 million in exchange for an international winger with so many qualities.
Thus far, he has 2 goals and 3 assets this season in 12 matches for Nottingham Forest. It will be a big thing if he touche the G+A of 20, now only has 5 yet.
United will undoubtedly reflect on this and feel a little sorry for themselves. Perhaps Elanga will become a prominent Premier League player in the future.
