Nottingham Forest may be interested in signing Santiago Gimenez, but the club is also in talks with Arsenal about one of their players.
The Reds are aiming to improve their ranks in the next few weeks of the transfer window, and Forest are believed to have made a move for Gimenez.
Forest have created a reputation for themselves in recent transfer windows, spending lavishly on a number of players.
However, they have struggled to bring in a top striker, and Gimenez’s signing suggests that this requirement will be solved.
However, while Gimenez is desired, it appears that Forest is also hunting for another striker.
Nottingham Forest talks to Arsenal about signing Eddie Nketiah.
Sheth has updated Sky’s live transfer tracker with information on Eddie Nketiah, claiming that both Forest and Palace are in talks to sign the Arsenal player.
“Meanwhile, Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest remain in dialogue with Arsenal over the signing of striker Eddie Nketiah,” Sheth told the BBC.
“So far, no club has met Arsenal’s value of the player. Nketiah was an unused substitute in Arsenal’s Saturday victory over Wolves.
“The forward has three years left on his contract and is looking to move to get more regular first-team football.”
Nketiah facing a big few weeks
Eddie Nketiah has to leave Arsenal in the coming weeks. It is that simple.
It’s time for him to find a new home, play consistently, and show himself again.
However, he will have a nervous wait to see if someone will buy him. Several clubs, including Forest, are interested in signing the striker.
Bournemouth are rumored to have inquired about Nketiah, but they have recently spent £40 million on Evanilson, so that deal may be dead in the water.
Everton is also a fan of Nketiah, although they have spent this summer on players such as Iliman Ndiaye.
Forest, then, may be an ideal landing site for the striker who could cost £30 million.
