A deal involving two Premier League rivals will shortly result in some money for Manchester United.
In an attempt to strengthen their offence following Callum Wilson's departure and the ongoing rumours about Alexander Isak's future, Nottingham Forest is selling Anthony Elanga to Newcastle.
Elanga, who paid £15 million to join Forest from United two years ago, is anticipated to cost over £60 million to go to the northeast. Because they added a sell-on clause when the Swede moved to Nottingham, some of the £45 million that Forest will make will go to United.

According to The Sun, the clause is estimated to be worth 15% of any profit, meaning it is probably in the single-digit millions, possibly £6 million or £7 million.
Though hardly a game-changer for the Premier League, it is a welcome boost for United, who are eager to move their wantaway five—Alexandra Garnacho, Tyrell Malacia, Jaden Sancho, and Marcus Rashford—in order to free up cash and carry on with Ruben Amorim's squad makeover.
It's not the only sell-on clause increase United may experience in the near future. According to reports, if Mason Greenwood leaves Marseille for the suggested sum to join Saudi team Al-Ahli, they might receive £30 million because of a 50% sell-on provision in his contract.
For £62.5 million, United purchased Matheus Cunha from Wolves, while they are still negotiating with Brentford for Bryan Mbeumo. Diego Leon, a teenage wing-back, has finally arrived, and they are still linked to a number of other players, including Valencia's Javi Guerra and Atalanta's Ederson.
