Nottingham Forest have sent offers for Manchester United duo Dean Henderson and Anthony Elanga.
That’s according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, who claims Forest have sent a loan deal proposal for Henderson as well as a permanent option for Elanga.
Romano adds that Forest want to get both deals done after closing in on Ola Aina on a free transfer.

If we’re being completely honest, neither Henderson or Elanga are going to get a lot of game time at United next season.
Anthony Elanga transfer fee agreed
A report from The Telegraph claims Forest are set to sign Elanga in a £15 million deal, and he is expected to have a medical in Nottingham over the weekend. It is also suggested that the Sweden international turned down offers from Everton, West Ham and Marseille to join Forest.
The transfer fee was thought to have been agreed by the clubs earlier on Friday.
Elanga’s move will see him end a nine-year association with United, so it goes without saying that everyone at United will wish him well.
It remains to be seen if Forest’s attempts to sign Henderson on loan will be successful.
