Nottingham Forest relaxed over Gibbs-White as Glasner shapes plans
Forest fans are split on links with Manchester City's Tijjani Reijnders. Some see a major signing for Glasner, while others question the cost, age and whether he fits the system.
Oliver Glasner is reportedly leading Forest's recruitment, with Romano saying he is 'somewhat in control' of transfers - a level of influence Nuno Espirito Santo was never afforded.
Bayern are interested in Morgan Gibbs-White via his new agency links, but a move looks unrealistic. Forest are under no pressure to sell and he has 'no chance' of joining this summer.
Forest academy striker Azae Bonnick, 15, has been named BBC Sport’s youngster to watch after 39 goals and 14 assists last season. He said: ‘Got a long way to go’.
Forest are pushing for Bologna defender Jhon Lucumi and Manchester City midfielder Tijjani Reijnders, with talks expected to intensify as they seek late-window reinforcements.
Forest have made several bids for Givairo Read, but Feyenoord want €33m guaranteed and are ‘not going along with it’. The right-back wants the move, yet a deal looks unlikely.
A projected Forest XI under Oliver Glasner features Diomande, Reijnders and Delap, with Sels, Milenkovic, Murillo and Gibbs-White central to a three-at-the-back rebuild.
Juventus are interested in Nikola Milenkovic, but Forest value the centre-back at about £25m and are unlikely to want another key player to leave before the season starts.
Forest’s move for Ousmane Diomande has collapsed after a major breakdown with Sporting CP over payment terms. Only a ‘major turnaround’ would revive the €40m deal.
Forest are reportedly speaking to the representatives of 17-year-old Mali winger Alou Meminta, a long-term academy prospect who can play as a No 10 or on either wing.
