Jimmy Anderson in talks with Surrey to continue county career
Jimmy Anderson is in talks with Surrey to join them for the next County Championship season after being released by Lancashire.
Negotiations progress for veteran bowler
Surrey has made a firm move to offer the 44-year-old a contract. The club believes Anderson will agree to join them despite his initial thoughts on retirement. He was released by Lancashire last month after serving over 25 years at Old Trafford.
Surrey resources fit salary rules
The county has the financial resources to make an attractive offer within ECB limits. They can accommodate him while offering a return to Division One cricket. Anderson took 50 wickets in Division Two last season before his release.
Potential move to The Kia Oval
Anderson could play at the venue where he claimed 50 Test wickets between 2003 and 2023. He turns 45 in July of next year and aims to extend his career. Reports suggest he is increasingly likely to play on despite his age.
