According to a rumor, Nuno Espirito Santo’s team is reportedly in advanced discussions with the player in question, and Nottingham Forest is on the verge of making a January acquisition.
Nottingham Forest is getting ready for the window of transfers.
Although Steve Cooper was dismissed as manager by Nuno at Nottingham Forest recently, the East Midlands team nonetheless triumphed over Newcastle United on Boxing Day to give their struggling Premier League campaign fresh life.
However, once the Tricky Trees play their next game against Manchester United on Saturday, attention will shift to their efforts during the January transfer window.

Nottingham Forest approves the “creative” player’s offer.
At The City Ground, things haven’t worked out.
After the match against Erik ten Hag’s team, Forest will have nine days to prepare for their FA Cup match against Blackpool, giving them time to handle some possible business. Pierre Ekwah, a midfield player for Sunderland, has reportedly become a midfield target at the City Ground, according to sources earlier this month.
More recently, sources in Italy have also identified Genoa defender Radu Dragusin in relation to Nottingham Forest as a potential addition. The Romanian international, who won’t be permitted to leave for less than €25 million, is reportedly also a target for Tottenham Hotspur. Regarding the 21-year-old, communication has been established, but it’s uncertain if either party would be open to paying that amount.
As Nuno gets used to life at the club, rumors about transfer transactions in the East Midlands could persist in the upcoming weeks. According to a source, he appears to be on the verge of making a breakthrough with his first acquisition at the team—an offensive player.
Gelson Martins is being approached by Nottingham Forest…
According to reports in Portugal, Nottingham Forest are closing in on the signing of AS Monaco winger Gelson Martins, who has just six months left to run on his contract at The Stade Louis-II.
Despite receiving advances from the United States and teams in Russia, it is believed that the former Portugal international is now in advanced talks to move to the City Ground on a permanent transfer.
Labelled “incisive” by former boss Diego Simeone, the 28-year-old hasn’t featured for Monaco this term and joining compatriot Nuno on a new venture at Nottingham Forest could be the ideal tonic to get his career back on track. Despite his lack of involvement at the principality side, the Cape Verde-born wideman did show an eye for goal last campaign, recording around 1.1 shots on goal per game in Ligue 1 (Martins statistics – Sofascore).
The Tricky Trees could do with more options in the final third and it now appears that they have acted to
strengthen a position where they have been fairly light on numbers heading into the second half of the season, so a move for Martins will be one to watch in the New Year.
