Nottingham Forest supporters are taking to Gustavo Scarpa already as he prepares to link up with his new club.
The Brazilian midfielder reached an initial agreement with Forest after running down his contract with Palmeiras and is now set to sign for Steve Cooper's side.. After a four-year stint at the Sao Paulo-based team, he is now set to undergo a medical at the City Ground before the club will announce his arrival at the weekend.
On Thursday, Scarpa shared a picture of himself at the airport in Brazil, confirming he was en route to England. The 28-year-old has since taken to Instagram to share his arrival in the country as he posted a video of himself, speaking in a British accent.
