Chelsea transfer 'enquiry made as Nottingham Forest in 'advanced talks' over transfer

Here’s the latest Nottingham Forest news on Wednesday, August 10, 2022.

West Ham star linked

Nottingham Forest have been linked with a shock move for West Ham star Said Benrahma.

The Hammers are reportedly prepared to offload the 26-year-old along with Nikola Vlasic "in the next days". While Vlasic's likely destination is Torino, it is said that Benrahma could be on his way to the City Ground.

The 26-year-old winger initially made the switch to the London Stadium on loan from Brentford in 2020 before signing permanently the following year. The highly-rated star scored 11 goals and assisted six in his 47 outings last season.

Nottingham Forest in ‘advanced talks’ over transfer

Nottingham Forest are reportedly in 'advanced talks' to sign Fiorentina captain Cristiano Biraghi.

Reds officials have met with Biraghi's agent Mario Giuffrida, claims Football News 24. Forest are understood to be keen to sign another left-back to provide competition for Harry Toffolo, following the injury to Omar Richards.

The report states that during the meeting a double figure offer was put on the table alongside a four-year deal, with an option to extend for a further year. The Italy international initially joined Fiorentina on loan in 2017, before penning a permanent deal the following season.

James Garner transfer claims

Nottingham Forest are reportedly back in for Manchester United midfielder James Garner amid hopes of a possible summer move.

The midfielder spent last season on loan at the City Ground, where he played a huge part in the club's promotion to the Premier League. Garner appeared 49 times for the Reds last summer and played a starring role in Steve Cooper's midfield alongside Ryan Yates.

A possible return to the East Midlands has been tipped throughout the summer transfer window, but the 21-year-old remained at Old Trafford to be part of Erik ten Hag's squad for pre-season. However, Garner was an unused substitute in United's 2-1 home defeat to Brighton and they are said to be keen on signing Juventus' Adrien Rabiot.

Chelsea ‘enquiry’

Nottingham Forest have made an enquiry to Chelsea over a possible transfer for full-back Emerson, according to reports.

The Reds are on the search for a left-back this summer as Steve Cooper continues the rebuild of his squad for the Premier League season. Forest looked to be closing in on a deal for Real Betis defender Alex Moreno, having agreed a fee with his club, but the player announced this week that he has decided to remain in Spain.

That has left Forest having to turn to other targets with under four weeks of the transfer window remaining. One name to be linked is Villarreal left-back Pervis Estupinan, with the club said to have made an enquiry for the 24-year-old.
