RUMOUR:

"According to the Daily Mail, Murillo is now open to a departure from Forest, but not until the summer.

It’s claimed that he’s considering his next steps, with Real Madrid and Chelsea seemingly the favourites to sign him.

Evangelos Marinakis will be standing firm though, with any accepted deal for Murillo likely to exceed the £55 million that Forest received for Anthony Elanga from Newcastle. "

Likely to be at least double Elengas imo?.

From madriduniversal website:

In the aftermath of Eder Militao’s latest injury setback, the conversation around Real Madrid has shifted quickly from their disappointing 0–2 defeat to Celta Vigo to the club’s urgent need to reinforce their backline.

The Brazilian defender is expected to be sidelined for an estimated four months, a development that has forced the club’s recruitment strategy back into the spotlight and raised questions about how Los Blancos plan to go through the remainder of the season.

According to reports from AS, Real Madrid have now placed Nottingham Forest centre-back Murillo on their shortlist of defensive options.


3.) 10 Dec 2025 10:17:15
Should be £100M, no question.


4.) 10 Dec 2025 20:04:00
If we get any more than £90M that is at least a 600% profit margin.


5.) 10 Dec 2025 23:44:53
Seeing how we perform without Murillo, I wish he would stay but he will leave, so we should get what he's worth to Forest, 100 million+, and hope we can get another gem like him!.

RUMOUR: Awoniyi to Werder Bremen in January

"t’s claimed the two parties met earlier this week, and the Reds have decided to let him leave in January if there’s a ‘satisfactory offer’. There’s no mention of the fee needed to convince Sean Dyche’s side.

The frontman is also open to a move, and his preference is to continue in the Premier League. There’s been no signs of interest from England while Werder Bremen are keen on securing his services.

Werder Bremen manager Horst Steffen admires the Nottingham Forest player and aims to make him a key part of his attack if the two clubs can reach an agreement. "

Good luck to him if he goes, always gives his all for us and his goals back when we got promoted kept us up. Sadly i don't think he'll ever reach those heights again in the prem.
He did well at Union so knows the league and should settle well. ?.


2.) 22 Nov 2025 00:45:19
Taiwo will always be held in high esteem, due to his efforts in our first season back in the prem. If he does leave, I'll always remember his goal against Arsenal that comfired prem survival. He's still a handful, when fully fit, but offers little goal threat.


3.) 22 Nov 2025 10:59:14
The rumours seem to indicate that they are looking to farm out either Taiwo or Kalimuendo and try to bring in a striker in January. It's normally really expensive, so could be a loan.

If Wood and Taiwo stay fit, I'd loan Kalimuendo to get him minutes if they are bringing someone else in unless they can get a big enough fee for Taiwo to fund an upgrade.


4.) 22 Nov 2025 11:21:31
If Awoniyi had have kept fit, he would have been a regular goal scorer for us, he was so unlucky with injuries, and after his dreadful clash with the post he was lucky to play again!. If he does leave hope he's successful where ever he ends up, but still might have a purple patch for us?, you never know.

Rumour from Fabrizio Romano

@FabrizioRomano
?? After talks in the last 24h, Roberto Mancini won’t become new Nottingham Forest manager at current stage.

Despite discussions and negotiations, Forest and Mancini have not reached an agreement.

RedCyclist

1.) 20 Oct 2025 05:45:00
He was never going to want a relegation battle anyway.


 

 

19 Oct 2025 13:10:54
Manager rumours:

Spaletti has turned us down.

They have explored the possibility of bringing Brendan Roagers from Celtic. He is in last year of contract and talks have stalled.

They have also approached Mancini for talks and already held exploratory talks with Dyche.

RedCyclist

1.) 19 Oct 2025 14:26:00
My belief is the next manager will be Da Silva. What is 8 million compensation to Fulham as far as Forest’s fortunes are concerned. We won’t need to worry re worsening our financial viability, as Nuno got a quick job it saved us a few million at least.


2.) 19 Oct 2025 17:12:47
Silva is the obvious choice as he has a history of working well with the Greekfather. The other names mentioned are above.

I'd go for Mancini or Rogers, esecially if Silva is too expensive and available for free at the end of the season if it doesn't work out with whoever is appointed. Only the club know whether the cost is important. All the main possibles are experienced in this league. Dyche is by far the least successful and most boring to watch.


3.) 20 Oct 2025 00:48:32
We could end up with a complete left field appointment who no one's considered?, and why doesn't Marinakis cause this much drama at his other clubs?.

Romano Rumour in the GiveMeSport newsletter:

"It's just the beginning. So nothing about a reaction from the owners. Postecoglu needs time to adapt to new team after joining Nottingham Forest. "

Ange is safe for now.

@Carlo

Can you pinpoint exactly what Edu has done wrong?

RedCyclist

1.) 10 Dec 2025 16:10:46
Cyclist he doesn't after explain himself to you. same as I don't have to. nothing you say will change our minds on edu the terrible. So live with it pal. like we've had to with nuno and dycheball from you.


2.) 10 Dec 2025 16:15:16
I can, spent 200 million on crap ?.


3.) 10 Dec 2025 16:53:19
Breathed? OK ok kidding but you lot leave carlo alone. Bless him. And lego, course dtp has met carlo. Carlo used to meet up with us at the tbi. When I made the effort.


4.) 10 Dec 2025 17:11:42
I heard it was because he prefers an afro 70s style cut downstairs and hates a Brazilian. ✂️?.


5.) 10 Dec 2025 17:44:12
It, s simple, just look what’s happened since Edu arrived.
If your happy seeing a man cause such disruption to a club that was at last on the up after so many lean years that’s your prerogative.
One of the respected radio Nottm commentators has said the the atmosphere at the club suddenly turned toxic over the summer.


The evidence is there to be seen on the pitch.
I, ve see the club go down this route several times over the years and the result has aways been the same relegation.


6.) 10 Dec 2025 18:12:08
What disruption has Edu caused?

Nuno has signed a deal and then deliberately overplayed his hand and walked off with the money at his last three clubs now (four if you count Wolves). That is a Nuno thing and his job isn't to choose who Marinakis hires when he's getting millions to coach the team.

What other disruption has Edu caused. I'm not saying he has or hasn't, I want to know what you can actually say he has done personally that has caused disruption.

You can't blame Edu for Nuno leaving, nor can you blame him for the Ange appointment, as that was Marinakis.

So is Dyche a disruptive influence? Syrianos and Edu appointed Dyche.

Or is it something else?

As for the signings, it isn't one person behind them anyway. Some are throught Edu contacts like Luiz and Hutchinson (who both look good), but others are based on Forest's in club team and MArinakis Textor connections.


7.) 10 Dec 2025 18:12:36
Oh, and yes, Nuno turned the atmosphere toxic. End of.


8.) 10 Dec 2025 18:17:40
Funnily enough I never heard one complaint about edu imminent arrival last season
And not this until nuno downed tools and was sacked for gross misconduct.


9.) 10 Dec 2025 18:38:15
You keep that glass half empty there Carlo:) ?.


10.) 10 Dec 2025 18:51:40
Bowie - I'm not a mind-reader nor clairvoyant. How was I supposed to know that both you and DTP have met with Carlo?

All I'm saying is that I found him a great guy when I met him.


11.) 10 Dec 2025 18:54:28
Yeah the 3 stooges together again ???.


12.) 10 Dec 2025 21:28:14
Sorry lego, didn't mean to put it over wrongly. ?.


13.) 10 Dec 2025 23:09:32
And no, Jay, nobody has to explain themselves. But if you shout something really loud and people don't understand why, then the only way you make sense is by explaining why you're saying it. This is a site for banter and Forest chat.

And I'm not trying to have a go. I am trying to explain why it makes no sense to me blaming Edu for Forest's problems. I don't think it is that simple for a second.

If you don't explain why you're saying something, people will think you are a bit odd. And, yes, I know I'm odd, that's why I love Forest probably. ?.


14.) 10 Dec 2025 23:09:49
The problem with meet ups lego is that it causes you to defend or not post back if you disagree with that poster? I'm glad i met the people I've met on here, some very good friends, but it changes how you post
I ve never met skeggs or balloons and I prefer that, i can say what I like to them and they can say same back, sometimes it's better not to put a face to that poster, just keep it fresh?
I'm not advocating you don't do meet ups at all, but I won't do any more
The site was always feisty back in the day, but we never had the cliques we have now.


You meet people some you get on with others you don't, that's life
Gazzi been on here for years but doesn't want that meet up and many more, no offence gazzi
Love the site and the bickering, as some put it?
Imagine if we all just kept Pating each other on the back and kept agreeing?


15.) 11 Dec 2025 00:31:06
Back in the day when you listened to radio, I listened to Steve Wright and Chris Ashley, when I saw there faces it was a shock, voice and face didn't match. When I read posts on here I imagine what the posters are like, and if you meet up it could be a disappointment if they are a t**t in person!, I view the site like the neighbour you nod at, but wouldn't invite them in your house on New years Eve for a drink ?.

Only 8 points behind Europe.

If we can just get Yates and Co. (my mate's firm of solicitors - Google it! ) firing, maybe this league season won't be a tedious grind fest after all.

Hope springs eternal. COYR!

RedCyclist

1.) 05 Dec 2025 08:33:31
Always look upwards but we are also only 3 points ( and 4 GD) from the abyss Cyclist. Good to have a bit of breathing space and players coming back from injury though….


2.) 05 Dec 2025 14:18:14
So important to get three points against Everton, one of the teams we don't need getting a gap point wise, hard ask to win again away, but I'm sure Sean Dyche will be realising the encounter,
!.


3.) 05 Dec 2025 18:21:10
Or at least a draw Mossy which would be a good result for us imo.


4.) 06 Dec 2025 00:33:26
Stokey a draw is preferable to losing, just a bit OCD about getting up the table to safety especially with these extra games, think for his own ego, Dyche would love to win there though.


5.) 06 Dec 2025 11:54:27
Good post Mossy. A retired commercial pilot I knew always said he was taught to deal with the event that’s going to kill you and your passengers first. So, if your are heading for a mountain gain altitude, if cabin pressure falls lose altitude.

It sounds common sense doesn’t it?
Dyche will prioritise the Prem position first then see how we are in the New Year injuries and results wise before pushing on in the Europa imo.

I take it Jair Cuhna is injured? He's not even in the squad.

RedCyclist

1.) 03 Dec 2025 21:59:15
He was on the bench.

Not required though.


2.) 03 Dec 2025 22:01:29
Thought he was on the bench.


3.) 03 Dec 2025 22:32:29
Oh, I was reading the wrong page ?.


 

 

01 Dec 2025 15:13:15
Wolves attack:

Tolu Arokodare: Stands at an imposing 6 ft 6 in (197 cm). He offers a substantial aerial threat and physical presence.

Jørgen Strand Larsen: Is also very tall at 6 ft 4 in (193 cm). He is known as a physical forward and provides another strong target in the air.

If this isn't a game to start Jair Cuhna then I don't know what the manger is taking.

RedCyclist

1.) 01 Dec 2025 17:50:00
Looks like Murillo will be fit to play so are you bringing Cuhna in for Milenkovic or Murillo?

Or was it only if Murillo was still out?


2.) 01 Dec 2025 18:53:24
I wouldn't drop Murillo or Milenkovic. Murillo can play LB ?.


3.) 01 Dec 2025 19:07:53
His hamstrings obviously aren't up to playing fullback ?.


 

 

27 Nov 2025 23:07:15
Murillo, not bad to say he isn't a left back. ?.
