Nottingham Forest Transfer Rumours

29 Jan 2026 11:16:29
As an alternatives to Mateta we are reportedly looking at Ferguson and Jhon Duran, the latter would definitely be a coup.
As for Stirling and Dunk, just paper talk and really don't fit the recruitment model. ?.

30 Jan 2026 21:22:53
Dunk we a made a serious offer for.

30 Jan 2026 23:17:07
Be thankful they turned us down then, maybe 2 or 3 years ago but now i really don't see the point. ?.

31 Jan 2026 22:54:39
Nuno wanted traore
Dyche wanted dunk and mcneil?
Thank god they don't get the players they want.

27 Jan 2026 17:31:36
Looks like we have made enquiries about Lewis Dunk! Plus have an offer in for Mateta- at least with Luiz going the treatment room will be thankful.

28 Jan 2026 22:41:22
Dyche and dunk ball?
Why do we need a cart horse like dunk?

27 Jan 2026 15:12:31
Mateta to Forest, possible good signing depending on cost - CP will want what we can't afford!
Luiz going back to Juventus, then back out to Villa on loan - deal sorted according to Sky!
Strand Larson to CP to replace Mateta Maybe!
Not sure I like the idea of Lewis Dunk from Brighton, I think he might be 34!
But yes, if we get Mateta to go with Jesus's, Taiwo and the other new fella, what a strike force! We just need service to the front line then!

28 Jan 2026 08:46:26
Going after Dunk is a head scratcher, seems like buying for the future has been binned, and we already have Boly at 35, wonder if Sean had any input in wanting Dunk?.

27 Jan 2026 13:59:08
Is Jesus going to Athletico?
Is Luiz going to Villa.?
Two of our most skilful players that don't suit Dyche's up and under launch ball. Get the giants in to drag the ball out the sky. going to set us back years.

28 Jan 2026 22:43:58
He was an edu signing remember.

27 Jan 2026 09:37:24
Douglas luiz on his way to villa
Probably a good thing as it hasn't worked out with injuries
Pity though a good player.

27 Jan 2026 11:09:19
Good business by Villa, sold Luiz to keep with in PSR, now get him back till end of season on wages.

28 Jan 2026 01:57:23
Luiz is back to villa, awonyi staying along with Jesus, I've not heard mateta other than he won't be there next season but that's said of glasnner, talks on going I guess, a midfield will be signed on deadline day.

24 Jan 2026 19:16:40
I think the owner is losing interest. Sacking poor performers is what he does. Dyche not being removed is a sign he’s losing interest. Some might say he’s realised it’s probably not the answer but that’s not how he operates. Under perform its cheerio. Dyche still being in charge is a big concern for many reasons.

24 Jan 2026 20:31:24
He'll probably keep Dyche until the end of the season, unfortunately. Then try and get Silva from Fulham if we stay up.

24 Jan 2026 20:46:10
Why would Silva go to Forest? Genuinely. Zero chance.

We have the 9th highest wage bill and the 17th team. Brentford tomorrow have the lowest wage bill in the league by the way. Just over half of ours.

24 Jan 2026 21:30:42
Don't think dyche was ever part of a long term plan, but dyche held all the aces in contract negotiations as mit many out of work coaches
But if he keeps us up its a cheap sacking option.

26 Jan 2026 09:55:47
I reckon the owner has been taking a bit of a break since his Mum died. By the end of season, he'll be back holding the reigns.

26 Jan 2026 15:41:17
I've googled if Mr Marinakis has attended any games since his Mother passed, unfortunately no answer was forthcoming, appreciate any body who goes down to City Ground recently and could provide a answer please.

26 Jan 2026 17:32:02
He was there vs Arsenal.

27 Jan 2026 09:26:21
Thanks, ?.

23 Jan 2026 18:07:49
Looks like Zinfandel and Louise on their way out. Expect John Victor McAtee and Savona to follow soon?

23 Jan 2026 20:44:12
I’d keep Savona as back up centre back and get rid of Morato. Savona isn’t a full back to be fair to him.

23 Jan 2026 21:50:12
You been reading my posts besered?
Ziindfandel and Louise? ???
Your phones worse than mine ???.

24 Jan 2026 17:05:22
On the wine are we, bsred? I'm quite partial to a glass of Zinfandel. Goes very well with a joint. Ndioye and Bakwa should be gone aswell.

22 Jan 2026 17:07:49
If rumours are to be believed over the course of the past week or so:

Zinchenko out, Tsimikas in. An improvement for me and gives us a player more suited to our style.

Luiz out, Fratesi in. Another where we’d add player more suited to our style, hard worked and can chip in the final third.

Awoniyi out (I’d imagine we’ll be looking to do this), Lucca in. Again another that’s more suited to how we play.

Kalimuendo out, Isidor/ taremi in. Think either give us another reasonable option. Taremi isn’t as bad as people think however would be a risk given his age. Isidor would be my pick personally but think it’ll be taremi.

I think the squad will be in a better place with these deal. Dyche will likely be happier with the options at his disposal so hopefully we can kick on.

22 Jan 2026 22:00:15
Well after that horror show the only changes that need making are the manager and head of recruitment!

23 Jan 2026 00:07:32
Tsimikas and Taremi look more likely. And they won't make a lot of difference. Lucca might but be he has no PL experience and has played v little this season. We need more on the evidence of tonight.

23 Jan 2026 10:00:18
Head of recruitment certainly SY. SD can only work with what he’s been given mate….

23 Jan 2026 14:20:57
I agree to an extent stokey. But he has to change up his tactics, he clearly can’t play this way with the is group of players and if he’s not capable of doing that then he shouldn’t be in charge of us. I remember him saying a few years ago that if he had more quality then the style of play would be different.

I believe some of the players in this group are much better than what he’s previously so if he’s any good he’d be able to get a tune out of what’s he’s got.

21 Jan 2026 08:26:01
Tammy Abraham swap for Awoniyi is a report I've seen. Not sure how true that one is. Does anyone think that will be a good deal.

21 Jan 2026 09:47:40
Abraham looks like going to Villa, but saw something yesterday about Ipswich being interviewed in Awoniyi?.

20 Jan 2026 14:47:21
Could be some sweet deals on the horizon for the Reds, with discussions taking place over 1/ 2 in from Napoli, and one out the other way (Ndoy)! Plus Zinchenko could be heading to Alax from Arsenal!

20 Jan 2026 16:08:57
Keefe, not really seen much of the Italian duo but I would definitely do the deal because Ndoy and Zinchenko have failed miserably.
They can't be any worse. then again.

19 Jan 2026 02:23:59
RUMOUR:

Forest have agreed a deal in principle to sign Lorenzo Lucca from Napoli. Apparently it is a loan with option to buy deal.

He has doubts and other Italian clubs are interested.

19 Jan 2026 07:11:04
If he asks Silenzi, any douths will be settled ?.

19 Jan 2026 10:24:51
There’s been a ‘breakthrough in last few hours’. According to Radio Marte, the player is open to moving to the City Ground in January.

Therefore, Dyche’s side have accelerated their efforts to finalise the deal for the attacker on loan with an option to buy set at €35m. If there are no last-minute setbacks, Lucca will play in the Premier League.

19 Jan 2026 10:25:29
Rai Sport journalist and Napoli expert Ciro Venerato also reports the player would be on his way to the English club, related by Area Napoli.

He says the Italian is ‘ready to say yes’ to Nottingham Forest, after rejecting Benfica, Pisa and a move to Saudi Arabia.

19 Jan 2026 13:26:49
It looks like my prediction (below) on the 5th January was bang on. Mystic Cyclist ?

Educated guess if I'm honest. He was struggling for game time and Napoli wanted to offload him. Dyche likes a big boy and Lucca is a giant.

19 Jan 2026 18:15:19
A goal every fourth game in senior football, thanks but no thanks.
CARLO.

19 Jan 2026 21:18:12
News now anyone can read cyclist, they get more wrong than right though.

20 Jan 2026 00:55:15
Yes it's news now. I didn't predict it now. Are you sure you can read? ?.

20 Jan 2026 08:30:38
DTP mate, this is the "rumours" section, Cyclist is using its function correctly, are you? ?.

20 Jan 2026 11:18:40
Not sure if it's a tactic to get a better deal by Lucca, but it seems he will only leave Italy kicking and screaming, we need someone up to speed straight away, not someone mopping around the training centre missing home.

20 Jan 2026 13:10:55
Reading an article on my lunch break from the Corriere dello Sport, Luca doesn't speak a word of English and it could be an issue regarding his final decision. ?.

20 Jan 2026 16:08:14
Boly came back from Afcon injured so can't see the transfer to west ham what was being considered, Boly could be useful as interpreter for Lucca, if he comes?.

20 Jan 2026 22:28:24
Lucca looks like the big barstool we need for Dyche's long ball 80s footy, but if he has his doubts then is it worth it?

The recruitment team have tried. Give him a date to make his mind up by and get negotiating with other players/ agents.

21 Jan 2026 11:52:57
Cyclist “Dyches long ball 80’s football”? Not again, thought I’d put that to bed, where I’m off to now ????????.

21 Jan 2026 13:42:07
Dinobot. Get out of relegation, hoof it up and hope. Get a giant up front and whack it to him. Any Sunday league boss could do that. You just need a fitness coach and a dead ball coach and let my Mum do the tactics. ??.

21 Jan 2026 18:07:28
Do you actually watch any Reds games Cyclist?
Or you just believe the propaganda? Genuine question mate …….

22 Jan 2026 16:39:54
@Stokey ? Landed a catch. ?

It looks like the Lucca deal is over the line (s'cuse the pun).

Ornstein and other sources are saying it will probably be conformed tomorrow. Loan fee of £1M.

Stokey will be pleased. We have a big lump up front for his favourite tactical genius mans approach. We can wack the ball in the genral direction of the box and hope we score. It worked for Wimbledon so. ?.

17 Jan 2026 02:36:42
RUMOUR: Glasner to leave palace this summer and on the shortlist to replace Dyche at Forest.

17 Jan 2026 05:36:41
This was all set up until Mendes interfered, and his client Nuno was employed, turned out alright, but wonder what could have been with Glasner?.

17 Jan 2026 11:50:40
Cyclist, in a recent post to Ed 1 I did predict that Palace would be dragged into the relegation scrap if they lost more key players ( like Eze) and I mentioned Wharton and Guehi by name. The fact that Glasner, an excellent manager, has now stated he is off in the summer is an additional bonus for us.


However, I think he would rather nail his own gonads to a wooden fence than work for an “erratic” owner like ours. Besides which, there will be no vacancy to fill……. ?? ?.

17 Jan 2026 13:38:19
I’ll be amazed if Dyche is still manager in August, I don’t think he fits marinakis ambitions for the club, whether you believe them realistic or not, I think he is a stop gap, nothing more, glasner Will almost certainly have bigger opportunities than here though.

13 Jan 2026 22:50:53
Look all these players that get mentioned rarely happen in any window
We are spent up unless we sell Anderson
Rumour has ut that the board isn't happy with the comments made by dyche after the Wrexham game and some aren't happy with recent performances
Personally think we will stick till end of season, but a bad defeat Saturday and anything other than a win against wolves could change things
Either way he's gone by end of may.

14 Jan 2026 10:38:43
He was 100% correct to criticise the players that are asking to play then perform like they did against Wrexham. I've got no problem with that. Only problem I've got with Dyche is his lack of tactical nous.

14 Jan 2026 21:00:51
I think Silva will come at end of the season.

14 Jan 2026 22:34:44
I think sane monty
Anyway up i can't see marinakis sticking with dyche.

15 Jan 2026 10:05:09
Just to play devils advocate, what happens if we win the Europa league? Do you still think Mr M will wield the axe? ?.

15 Jan 2026 12:03:37
The question is would Mr Marinakis trust Sean to progress in the Champions League?.

15 Jan 2026 12:51:51
Bloody hope not mossy ??.

15 Jan 2026 13:32:15
I can't see us qualifying for the knockouts let alone winning it.

15 Jan 2026 15:16:52
?Ravers you have been rumbled. ?.
