  • 'Any more' meaning '‘no longer’ or ‘in the past but not now' is usually two words, but can be written as one word, especially in American English. Commented Feb 8, 2020 at 16:50

You should use simple present (first sentence) in case you want to state a fact. You should use simple future (second sentence) if you want to make an assumption.

So depending on what you are trying to say both senteces are correct.
