Giorgi Mamardashvili

Giorgi Mamardashvili transfer card On Sunday, the Nottingham Post reported that Giorgi Mamardashvili, who is currently at Liverpool, is a top transfer target for Nottingham Forest. The Georgian international has been a backup to Alisson Becker at his current club. Fabrizio Romano noted that Liverpool are assessing whether to sign a replacement, a decision which is contingent on Mamardashvili's potential move to Nottingham Forest.

Hugo Larsson

Nottingham Forest have shown an interest in Eintracht Frankfurt's 22-year-old midfielder, Hugo Larsson, and it is understood they have made enquiries about his situation as of Sunday. Other English clubs including Brentford, Brighton and Hove Albion, Everton, and Hull City have also shown interest, while Crystal Palace and Fulham have advanced to holding talks with the player. A fee of around £25 million could be sufficient to persuade Frankfurt to sell the Sweden international, who is reportedly ready to move to England.

Dean Henderson

Fabrizio Romano reported on Sunday that Nottingham Forest made a transfer bid for Dean Henderson. Crystal Palace has rejected the bid for the 29-year-old English goalkeeper, as the club has no intention of selling him and wishes for him to stay. Several other clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, and Chelsea, have also been linked with him.

Gustavo Puerta

On Sunday, reporter Sierra stated that Evangelos Marinakis and his group have made Gustavo Puerta their top priority, citing sources from Colombia. The offer to the Colombian is to sign with Nottingham Forest and subsequently be loaned to Olympiacos for the next season to play in the Europa League.

Lucas Bergvall

Nottingham Forest continue to be interested in Lucas Bergvall as of Sunday, despite Roberto De Zerbi insisting that the Swede is part of his plans for the current campaign at Tottenham.

Pape Matar Sarr

Nottingham Forest are interested in signing Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Pape Matar Sarr. According to Sky Sport Switzerland journalist Sacha Tavolieri on Friday, talks with Galatasaray are continuing, but Nottingham Forest have made progress in the deal in recent hours and talks with Tottenham have advanced. He added that this could lead to a paid loan with an option to buy. On the same day, Matt Law reported that both Nottingham Forest and Besiktas have shown an interest in signing Sarr.

Kévin Danois

L'Équipe reported on Sunday that Nottingham Forest is interested in Kévin Danois. The player is not very willing to leave immediately, and an offer over €35 million would be needed. Such an offer from the Premier League is considered unlikely at present.
