Manchester United Reportedly Wants Nottingham Forest Relegated for Transfer Targets

Manchester United is reportedly hoping for the relegation of Nottingham Forest in order to facilitate the acquisition of two key players: Morgan Gibbs-White and Elliot Anderson. Both players are considered valuable assets for Nottingham Forest and are on United's list of transfer targets. Forest's relegation would make negotiations for their acquisition more accessible, both financially and in terms of bargaining power. Nottingham Forest is currently in a precarious position in the Premier League standings, just two points above the relegation zone, fueling United's hopes. The acquisition of the two players could significantly strengthen the Manchester United squad.
