Nottingham Forest have made a quick start to the summer transfer window.
Nottingham Forest are closing in on three new signings, with Brazilian trio Igor Jesus, Cuiabano and Jair Cunha close to making the move to the City Ground.
The Tricky Trees are expected to outlay around £33m on the three deals, with Jesus taking up the majority of that fee.
Forest are also exploring a move to sign Roony Bardghji, who has just snubbed a new contract at Copenhagen.
Meanwhile, on the outgoing front, Morgan Gibbs-White has been heavily linked to Manchester City, but now there is a positive development on that situation.

Nottingham Forest now look likely to keep Morgan Gibbs-White
Nottingham Forest fans have been facing a nervous wait over the last few weeks to find out whether Morgan Gibbs-White will be staying.
Forest have been demanding £100m to sell Gibbs-White in the hope it would fend off Man City boss Pep Guardiola.
And, it looks like they’ve been successful in that, as the Citizens have now turned to AC Milan midfielder Tijjani Reijnders.
The Athletic’s David Ornstein reports that a deal has been agreed to sign Reijnders, so Guardiola is expected to drop his interest in Gibbs-White.
Forest may cool interest in James McAtee
Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo can now plan with Gibbs-White in his squad next season, so there may be a more relaxed approach to bringing in a creative midfielder.
Man City’s James McAtee was seen as a potential Gibbs-White replacement, so that deal may now be off the table.
A striker appears to be Espirito Santo’s priority at the moment, with Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin the latest to be linked to the City Ground.
Bournemouth frontman Evanilson is also on Forest’s radar, but that certainly won’t be an easy deal to complete.
