The 23-year-old underwent his medical in Kansas, where the England national team is currently based, ahead of their last-16 match against Mexico.

Anderson marks the first acquisition of the post-Pep Guardiola era and is expected to significantly bolster new manager Enzo Maresca's squad, whose return to the club was confirmed recently.
