Nottingham Forest are set to lose Elliot Anderson this summer.
Evangelos Marinakis is holding out for a guaranteed £120m to sanction Anderson’s sale, so Nottingham Forest will have substantial funds to replace him.
The East Midlanders will likely take the approach of signing multiple midfielders to adequately fill the void rather than just one player coming in.
Brandt, Vlahovic and Bissouma are all free agents… who should Nottingham Forest sign? ✍️
That said, there is now a report coming out of Italy which claims Forest have asked about the conditions of a deal to sign a two-time Serie A winner.
Nottingham Forest ask about Davide Frattesi again
Nottingham Forest bid for Davide Frattesi in the January transfer window, but failed to get a deal done with Inter Milan.
Now, Forest are reigniting their interest in Frattesi, as Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio reports that Vitor Pereira’s side have made contact with Inter.
Di Marzio notes that Forest are facing strong competition from Napoli, who have qualified for the Champions League next season after finishing second.
On a scale of 1-10 how confident are you that Nottingham Forest will keep Morgan Gibbs-White this summer?
How much is the star man worth?🔥
So, Frattesi may have his sights set on joining up with Antonio Conte, leaving Forest to look elsewhere at other targets.
Pereira has had a close look at a number of domestic midfielders, with Shea Charles and Hayden Hackney linked to the City Ground.
The Championship duo are widely regarded as some of the best young midfielders in the country and are expected to join a Premier League club this summer.
Everton are currently leading the race for the £20m-rated Hackney, although they’ve recently had a £15m bid rejected.
So, there is an opportunity for Forest to hijack the deal.
