The Nottingham Forest midfielder is currently in a relationship with lawyer Olivia Kate Parvia. Here’s what we know about her.
Who is Elliot Anderson and which team does he play for?
Elliot Anderson plays for Nottingham Forest and the England national team.
Born in Whitley Bay in the northeast on November 6, 2002, the midfielder advanced through the youth ranks at his childhood club Newcastle before transferring to Forest in the summer of 2024.
The Magpies were reluctant to let Anderson go, with manager Eddie Howe mentioning that no one at the club wanted his departure.
However, the sale was necessitated by the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR), leading to Anderson’s move to Forest for approximately £35 million.

In November 2024, Howe stated: “Elliot was a sale we didn’t wish to make. No one at the club wanted that to happen, but we had no alternative.
“I foresee this trend continuing, not just here but across various clubs where players are sold for financial reasons.
“I don’t think this has been common in the sport’s past unless due to financial constraints necessitating sales.
“It’s unusual for a financially stable club to have to sell homegrown talents because of regulations.
“I’ve expressed my confusion regarding this – why are clubs incentivized to sell their academy players?”
Fortunately for Anderson, the transition has turned out to be beneficial – he has emerged as one of Forest’s standout performers.
He is reportedly valued at over £100 million, attracting interest from some of the Premier League’s elite clubs.
His remarkable performances led him to make his senior England debut against Andorra in September 2025, and he has retained his place on the team since.
The Forest midfielder, who celebrated winning the European Under-21 Championship with England earlier that year, earned a spot in Thomas Tuchel’s 26-man squad for the 2026 World Cup.
Anderson has been given the number 8 shirt for the tournament – the same number he wears at the City Ground.
Who is Elliot Anderson’s girlfriend Olivia Kate Parvia?
Olivia Kate Parvia is a lawyer employed at Gunnercooke, a renowned global law firm.
She was seen carrying a £4,000 Chanel crossbody bag while cheering for her boyfriend during a match.
Olivia was photographed with him on the pitch at the City Ground following Forest’s 1-1 draw with Bournemouth on the final day of the 2025-26 season.
As for when the couple began dating, neither has publicly shared that information.
