Manchester United could land huge PSR boost after £35m transfer approach
Manchester United could land themselves some pure profit in the fight against the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability Rules thanks to their top-flight rivals.
Newcastle United have opened late talks with Nottingham Forest in a bid to sign former Red Devils winger Anthony Elanga. Eddie Howe is a big fan of the Swedish international and has already made one attempt to sign the 22-year-old back in June.
Forest have reportedly rejected Newcastle's opening offer of £35million as they try to address their lack of depth out on the right-hand side of the pitch. There's still a lot of work to do for a deal to get over the line, but if they are able to agree terms, it'll be welcome news for Manchester United.

The Mirror claims that United inserted a sell-on clause into Elanga's transfer deal which saw him move from Old Trafford to the City Ground in the summer of 2023. The Red Devils pocketed £15m from the original transfer, with the fee potentially hitting the £20m mark if certain clauses were met.
It's unclear whether Elanga has hit any of these clauses and while United may miss out on some of those fees, they could well pocket pure profit from a transfer to Newcastle United. It's unclear just how much the Red Devils would pocket from the deal, but it's one to keep an eye on in the final few hours of the window.
