Nottingham Forest Transfer Rumours

31 Jan 2025 13:00:29
Heard from a good source 2 imminent signings Douglas Luis loan obligation to buy and Wissa permenant deal.

That would set us up nicely for a top 6 finish imo.

31 Jan 2025 19:41:50
That would be an excellent boost Munmad, especially as Wissa can play winger and centre forward with the injury to CHO and wear and tear on Woody! ?.

01 Feb 2025 09:27:49
I’d be happy with them two MUNMAD.

26 Jan 2025 10:58:55
No 9 might be available this window in the Chris Wood mode Jean Mateta from Palace big strong physical good in the air

A natural target man not a winger no 10 or an AM does exactly what it says on the tin!

21 Jan 2025 23:27:55
Now we're talking, Forest linked with Matheus Cunha from Wolves! Brilliant player! Get him in!

22 Jan 2025 07:50:20
I just don't see this happening. Ambition we have by the boat load but with money we have to stay under the rules that have bitten our rear end before.
We won't spend 80 million and even if they lower the asking price by a few mill it's dangerous for us to flirt with.
We're still a club that has to play with 20-25 million as top price. The players we hope to sell off this January, wouldn't bring in that type of money and to be fair, how many clubs are lining up for our cast offs?
Nice fantasy but I fear it's just that.

22 Jan 2025 13:48:01
He is a top player, improves our starting eleven, can play any attacking position. If the big boss thinks we can go for it, why not. When he first bought Forest, he questioned the fans ambition. Let's all enjoy the Evangelos ride.

23 Jan 2025 09:55:57
It would be a great coup but the last hing we need is to risk any ffp backlash given our current position. We need to add in a way that gives us some depth for the rest of the season. What about the Feyenoord striker?

23 Jan 2025 16:02:29
Yep, I’d take Giminez SYD, scored a brace against Bayern last night and is a consistent goal scorer. Wouldn’t upset the dressing room too much either and at a reasonable price for his goal scoring talents. I know he turned us down 3 times in the summer but i wouldn’t hold a grudge against him for that, to be fair we were premier league strugglers at that time but now we are flying and a more appealing option. Time will tell as to who we bring in this transfer window but i do think we need another striker in as if Wood picks up an injury then we are knackered as Awoniyi isn’t the answer. He’s well off the boil and showing us the clumsy oaf that i always thought he was/ is. I wouldn’t be paying more than we’ve offered for Wissa either as he’s 28. Cunha is definitely a talent so we will have to wait and see what happens. Either way i reckon we will need to get a bit of quality over the line before the window slams shut.

24 Jan 2025 09:18:41
Saw an interesting read today suggesting that Taiwo could be used as bait for Wolves to part with Cunha. We offer Taiwo plus some cash for Cunha.

24 Jan 2025 10:50:53
Get it done ☑️.

24 Jan 2025 18:03:06
Giminez agreed terms with Milan. Now club have to agree with Feyenoord which is likely to be a bit more difficult. I just hope we don't end up without Cunha or Wissa and end up like the summer when we were left short as moves for Giminez and Marmoush failed.

25 Jan 2025 10:44:55
Perko, spot on. Taiwo isn't the same player he was 2 years ago. Always grateful for serving a purpose but we need a point of difference up front. Preferably one with pace and finishing. West ham pulled off a bloody coup with thier latest signing.

25 Jan 2025 14:34:45
No panic buying please, if a striker that makes us stronger isn't available, don't buy. Wait until the summer.

21 Jan 2025 21:15:19
Nottingham Forest make Wolves striker Matheus Cunha their top January target.

16 Jan 2025 23:23:38
West Ham are apparently interested in Taiwo and we are lining up Brentfords Yoane Wissa to replace him. Thoughts? Wissa would be fantastic imo.

18 Jan 2025 09:13:48
If we can recoup the money for Taiwo then we should snap their hands off. We all like Taiwo, what's not to like about the big guy? but this is business and let's face it, he's made of glass and will never give us a full productive season.

11 Jan 2025 18:29:51
Pleasing result today considering 11 changes from the team that started against Wolves

Only Wood CHO Elanga and Dominguez got minutes today so we should have a totally rested team against the scousers on Tuesday

Fancy us for a win against Liverpool 2-1 Hudson Odoi and Milenkovic.

29 Dec 2024 22:55:55
This is a rumour Ed's. Forest are a genuine top 4 club.

30 Dec 2024 13:04:24
I hope you are right Scouse mate. I fear that we might struggle with our small squad of genuine quality players if we get a few injuries or suspensions, particularly key players like MGW, Woody, Mikenkovic and ( i'm keeping my fingers crossed) Murillo. I hope I’m wrong though….

19 Dec 2024 17:02:53
Reading now that Santiago Gimenez now is open to joining Forest in January! That's very big of him! His reasons for messing us about in the summer was he didn't want to join a team facing a relegation battle! Says everything about the man's character imo

Move on Forest the man lacks character imo.

20 Dec 2024 17:30:49
We could still be a relegation fight. If Anderson gets injured or we play like we did against Man City then who knows what could happen.

Its a tight league league this season and until we get to 40 points we cannot take our foot off the gas.

The character speaks volumes, should stay clear.

24 Dec 2024 17:54:57
He said he wanted to join a club in the Champions League.

24 Dec 2024 20:15:34
Err no thanks. He turned us down before. Why bother calling z he’s just not worth it.

28 Dec 2024 13:10:21
The guy earned the right to play for his current team in the Champions league, and if it were me I wouldn't have moved to any club not just Forest, if I've earned that right. Also there is not a fan here who expected our club to have progressed as quickly as they have, never mind players from all over Europe. Nobody here can say we don't need a goalscorer and lord knows they guy scores for fun. I'd welcome him with open arms to the CG. This is a business, lots of money involved. People are allowed to have a change of heart but maybe many here have never changed their minds over anything.

30 Dec 2024 13:07:32
Good post Targa, though of course character and personality are inportant as well as football skill. We don t want any big time Charlies in our well motivated, tight knit squad. It only takes one bad apple…. but at the end of the day it’s a business and we trust our excellent recruitment team to do a job mate.

03 Jan 2025 11:43:47
??? Targa. Agreed. Also like Yuri Alberto.

10 Oct 2024 07:45:54
Arumour going round is that Liverpool want Forest target, Omar Marmoush.

Marmoush has 9 goals and 6 assists in the Bundesliga this season. Can we still land him in the summer window with the promise of first team football?

15 Oct 2024 22:37:53
If the scousers go in for him then he'll go there. They can offer him more money than we can.

12 Nov 2024 17:58:33
Thing is he's got to lot better chance of playing of showing himself off at the city ground.

09 Sep 2024 17:00:48
Kelleher was the subject of a large bid from us apparently.
If it had been accepted it would have taken the cost of trying to replicate Samba seem absolutely outrageous.
Big fees spent, loan fees and huge wages trying to replace a man who should have been kept at all costs.
I, ll always wonder who was behind this decision, it definitely wasn’t Samba.
CARLO.

09 Sep 2024 19:41:31
Samba was being greedy. He rejected a new contract that was worth more than double his salary.

10 Sep 2024 10:27:14
yes from 5k to 10k
now it, s cost millions, Henderson who replaced him 100k
CARLO.

10 Sep 2024 15:31:01
If we had succeeded in signing Kelleher, the keeper search would be over. A class above what we have and what we've had.

15 Sep 2024 23:47:07
I agree with Carlo, we missed the boat with Samba. Let a good one slip and have paid for it in money and points ever since.

16 Sep 2024 21:49:50
You should listen to what samba had to say. I have unfinished business in France and his family wanted to return. He did the business for us and we let him go because he wanted to return home.

18 Sep 2024 11:00:32
Why listen to what the actual player said when you can just make up a load of crap and question someone at the club?!?!

19 Sep 2024 21:11:14
2 tone your forgetting carlo has a mole ??.

20 Sep 2024 13:54:16
My missus has got a mole right near her.
Never mind I've said too much.

21 Sep 2024 18:28:59
You getting moles mixed up with beavers pollyard?

22 Sep 2024 16:42:30
The mole is near her beaver.

22 Sep 2024 17:24:33
Funny.

22 Sep 2024 19:09:16
I'm not one to put my nose in pollyred
I think it could be a problem?

31 Aug 2024 17:04:57
Nuno will be gone after we play Liverpool and Brighton
No plan B
Two wingers and two fullbacks not getting delivery in but can't see it
Williams made so many mistakes it's unbelievable he keeps picking him
Goalkeeper useless
Now we have ward prowse a winger has to be sacrificed or nuno is toast.

31 Aug 2024 20:03:07
He won’t be…. Unbeaten after 3 games 5 points (should probably be 7) not a bad start at all. Definitely improved on last season. Too many negative nancys about.
Sels useless….? What did he do wrong today?

01 Sep 2024 17:17:33
Need more goals from somewhere. No panic as yet but not sure whos going to take pressure off Wood. Its not Awoniyi at the moment.

02 Sep 2024 09:49:15
The negative posters need to look I'm the barroom mirror Nuno yes had a headache who to bring in but surely that's a good headache to have and that's why he's there, he kept us up and so far unbeaten give him and the new players a chance. well that's my opinion just Jesterimg ???.

02 Sep 2024 19:33:32
DTP I am with you I am afraid, atm. Your point re Williams and Ania negating the need for HO and Elanga. These latter two not heading for the line to centre to Wood but cutting inside, is loosing us chances and therefore matches.

Sanghera cannot be any better than OBrien, yet he stays the other goes. Jota and Sosa have energy, as does Yates. Jota and Yates were all over. Sadly, it was in 90 mins when Jota and Sosa were brought on. Where was Morena?

The style of Nuno play is identical to last season. We were so lucky that 3 teams were poorer than ours. Surely all fans, Big M included, hope for a better season ie a mid table finish. I cannot presently see that happening.

Folks on this site see the issues. We are armchair critics with very little knowledge, only watching players and noting positive and negatives. However, these points are made as we want our team to do well.

Nuno is being given a chance, but with the current second and third teams next away, it is likely we will gain no more points and then Fulham. This season we have a much better and more skillful squad. Let’s hope Nuno sees what we see and didn’t think on Saturday we could win. So therefore, he played a defensive hand. We need a manager who looks forward not backward all the time.

02 Sep 2024 22:24:12
Doc, I think you are dealing with symantec's when you say 3 teams poorer than ours, or is it our team better than theirs?

You can paint it how you want, is the rest of the league poorer than City, yes, what a negative way to view things though, doesn't make everyone else shite.

Not sure what Sels could have done about the goal, he's been pretty solid for us to be fair, if he makes a clanger then Miguel will come in.

Sangare is heads and shoulders better than O'Brien, he hasn't ripped up any trees since leaving us, not sure how he keeps popping up, championship player is all.

We've had a decent start to be fair, I know we have harder games to come but jeez, we haven't been played off the park or beat yet.

03 Sep 2024 19:43:23
I don't think nuno's job is in any danger currently. He has a better squad than he did last year as he actually got options now. He will get some things right but he will also get things wrong, so I see us finishing 14-15.

We get 3pts from next 3 games would be OK.

For Liverpool would go with a 4-3-2-1 to give us that bit extra in midfield. Get a draw there and would be happy. Brighton and Fulham are both winnable games if get tactics and substitutions right.

03 Sep 2024 22:57:00
Brighton winnable?
Really?
Hope your right and you put a tenner on at what will be at least 4 to 1 odds
There's definitely a good side in our squad as there was last season to, but it's a usual 4 2 3 1
But for me more like 4 2 2 1 1
To much space between players and MGW doesn't get beyond wood to be the number ten most the time that will score
MGW has all the talent but doesn't score enough for me.

04 Sep 2024 18:36:35
We play the other 19 teams twice. When we play them is largely irrelevant, although playing the perceived top 6 on the bounce could effect morale. Judging a season after 3-4 games seems a little nonsensical. If the doomers are still calling for Nuno's head in Dec, then let's see who's available. Maranakis is keen to tap into the Brazilian market, using Mendes. Having a Portuguese coach seems a logical step to me. In the words of Lance Corporal Jack Jones 'Don't Panic' - yet. FTID.

05 Sep 2024 14:12:46
It's all academic at the moment, if he wins the next three games. He will be the best manager since the bloke arranging the animals on Noah's Ark????.

15 Sep 2024 05:58:28
DTP would you like to reconsider your post in the light of a truly wonderful tactical masterclass by Nuno and his team at Anfield?

30 Aug 2024 10:47:12
Ward Prowse in ?.

30 Aug 2024 17:34:03
Elanga out.

30 Aug 2024 10:35:57
Looks like we'll be getting another defender.
Morato of Benfica. €15m been accepted.
