Nottingham Forest held talks over 21-year-old yesterday, player now wants CG transfer

Nottingham Forest have now reached an agreement with Borussia Dortmund to sign Gio Reyna.

This is according to journalist Seb Ecrivain.

So, what has been said about Forest and their attempt to sign American wonderkid Reyna? Let’s take a closer look…

Forest continue talks with Dortmund to sign Gio Reyna

Well, it would appear as though Forest are still in talks with Dortmund over the signing of their talented winger.

According to Seb Ecrivain, the Reds don’t have an agreement with the club just yet – but the player wants the move to Forest.

It’s claimed that Reyna is ‘very attentive’ to a potential move to the Premier League and hopes a deal can be struck.

Forest have been trying to sign a winger for the entire month and have identified Reyna as someone who can help.

The 21-year-old has fallen down the pecking order at Dortmund and is craving regular game time.

With Anthony Elanga currently out injured, Forest could certainly welcome another addition to the squad.

The youngster is clearly seeking to leave Dortmund this month and now it appears he fancies the Premier League.

It had been claimed that Marseille are going to try and sign Reyna too, so Forest aren’t home and hosed just yet.

The Reds can offer Reyna first-team football on a regular basis, however, and the chance to rediscover his career a little bit.

Reyna has been on the pitch for just 336 minutes this season and he will want to get fit and firing once again.

Forest have signed some pretty mediocre players since returning to the Premier League but this would be a step in the right direction.

Reyna is a talent, he’d have some resale value if a deal could become permanent and he’d also be hungry to play and prove himself.
