Nottingham Forest faces a critical summer transfer window as they hope to kick on under Nuno Espirito Santo. And they are off! The transfer window is now open, and Nottingham Forest’s critical summer has officially begun. Following multiple relegation battles, the Reds want to resume their Premier League campaign next season. To accomplish so, they will need to be strategic in their approach as they want to present head coach Nuno Espirito Santo with a solid group to work with. Last weekend, NottinghamshireLive shared our thoughts on what would be a perfect window for Forest. This time, we reversed the…
Evangelos Marinakis would have no problem removing Nottingham Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo if he believes he is not the appropriate person for the job. On the latest episode of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, senior writer Pete O’Rourke stated that the Forest owner is “very ambitious” following concerns about Nuno’s future. Following Steve Cooper’s dismissal in December, the Portuguese manager signed a contract with the club until 2026. Nuno guided Forest to Premier League safety despite receiving a four-point deduction for violating the league’s spending restrictions. O’Rourke revealed that there has been speculation that Marco Silva, who has worked…
Graham Smyth believes Patrick Bamford’s likely move from Leeds United this summer is one of the “most interesting scenarios” of the transfer season. In his Yorkshire Evening Post Q&A on the paper’s website on 14 June, the journalist claimed that the Englishman is a “streaky” striker who has shoulder a heavy burden of responsibility at Elland Road due to extensive injury issues, and that “it has not been easy for him at Leeds, on and off the pitch,” implying that he may be ready to leave. At the same time, Smyth noted that manager Daniel Farke adores Bamford and that…
Alfie Gilchrist is one of several players who have been linked with a move to Leeds United this summer. The Whites are apparently competing with Preston North End and Blackburn Rovers for Gilchrist, who is expected to leave Chelsea on loan. Gilchrist broke into the first team at Chelsea last season, but with so much competition for defensive positions, he will struggle to get game time at Stamford Bridge next season. Despite the two clubs’ long-standing rivalry, journalist Ben Jacobs suggested earlier this week that Gilchrist might be open to a summer loan move to Leeds. He made one of…
Graham Smyth believes Crysencio Summerville and Willy Gnonto are the two outstanding players most likely to depart Leeds United this summer. The Yorkshire Evening Post journalist stated on the outlet’s website on June 14 that Dutch winger Summerville, 22, was at the top of the list because no one at the club is “making any noise” about wanting to keep him. Because he only signed for roughly £1.5 million, his profit margin “will look very, very good when it comes to P&S headroom” if he sells for around £35 million. According to Smyth, Gnonto, 20, could also go because he…
United are facing another challenging summer in terms of the transfer window, but they may possibly emerge in a healthy position. Even the most ardent Leeds United supporter understands that the summer transfer window will bring some difficult decisions. Chairman Paraag Marathe has promised signings and money for manager Daniel Farke, but this comes with a dose of reality. After missing out on the Premier League by the smallest of margins, the club will have to move some players on to deal with profit and sustainability rules. This could mean selling some of the club’s best talent, but if Leeds…
Several Liverpool teenagers threaten to make the breakthrough under new head coach Arne Slot next season. Liverpool are looking to sign Lille defender Leny Yoro during the summer transfer window. However, the club recognises the gravity of Real Madrid’s interest in the 18-year-old, with the Spanish club presently the obvious favourites to sign him this summer. Nonetheless, Liverpool’s interest in a young talent like Yoro demonstrates the club’s clear plan to build for the future under Arne Slot, and the Dutchman will arrive at Anfield to discover a number of outstanding young players already in his squad. Jarell Quansah had…
Work is now underway at the City Ground to provide Nottingham Forest with an increased capacity going into the new campaign. A testing 2023/24 season for Forest can now firmly be put behind them as the summer transfer window has now officially opened. There is a lot of work that can be done over the coming weeks as Forest aim to comply with the PSR rules which require players to be sold before 30 June. But Evangelos Marinakis has some exciting plans to help develop the club having tasted European success last season with his other club, Olympiacos. Of course,…
Nottingham Forest could discover an interesting alternative to Che Adams this summer if they are willing to invest some money at the top. A new striker appears to be on the plan at the City Ground this summer, with Forest reportedly interested in free agent Che Adams. The former Southampton striker is seeking for a new club this month after leaving the Saints as a free agent. However, another English striker has entered the market this summer, hoping to get his career back on track. Although Adams may be a free transfer, Forest have also been linked with a £27…
