Done deal: £74,000-a-week star agrees verbal and personal term with Tottenham this afternoon after…
Nottingham Forest are in need of a few more players before the 2025/26 campaign gets underway later on this month.
Dan Ndoye signed for Forest last week, with the Reds parting with £34 million to sign the Swiss performer as a replacement for Anthony Elanga.
More players are required by Nuno Espirito Santo, however, with four new additions likely to be requested before the season starts against Brentford.
Forest have tied Morgan Gibbs-White to a new contract and now the challenge is to get more quality around him in the team ahead of the new season.

Nottingham Forest edge closer to Douglas Luiz deal
The Reds are cranking up their search for a new central midfielder, it would seem, with Juventus player Luiz now edging closer to the City Ground.
Calcio Mercato claims that Forest are making more progress, with Sports Zone in France believing that Luiz has now said yes to the Forest proposal.
The 27-year-old has only been with Juventus for a year, and he will now leave the Old Lady after just 27 appearances for the club, with the Premier League his likely destination.
Forest look set to beat Everton and West Ham to the 27-year-old’s signature as he bids to play in European competition again next season.

Douglas Luiz can change the way Forest play
Espirito Santo wants Forest to become more possession-based next season and the hope will be that Luiz can help with that tweak to the style.
Luiz won’t be coming cheap to the Reds if they do get a deal over the line, with the Brazilian earning around £74,000-a-week at Juve.
Forest would dearly love to have Luiz in their ranks next season, however, and if the boat has to be pushed out in terms of wages, then it could be worth it.
Edu has tried several times to sign Luiz in the past and now it could be a case of third time lucky for the former Arsenal transfer chief.
£4m Nottingham Forest player now wanted by club and Crystal Palace won’t be happy
Nottingham Forest are still looking to finalise their squad for the 2025/26 campaign with a number of new signings still anticipated before the season gets underway.
The Reds have so far added Igor Jesus and Jair Cunha from Botafogo, with Dan Ndoye signing for Forest from Bologna on Thursday last week.
There is still more to iron out, though, with Nuno Espirito Santo wanting at least four more players before the Premier League campaign gets into swing.
Forest still have work to do on the outgoing front, too. Matt Turner has left for Lyon in the last few days, with Lewis O’Brien joining Wrexham last weekend, too.
Now, another player is set to leave the club, and a potential transfer is certainly going to provide some intrigue with another Premier League club.

Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Carlos Miguel
Carlos Miguel could join Botafogo
The Brazilian goalkeeper was on the bench against Birmingham, with Matz Sels keeping goal for 90 minutes for the first time this pre-season.
Miguel has been told he can find a new club this summer and now, some links are emerging regarding his future.
According to Medeiros, the reputable Brazilian journalist, Miguel could now join Botafogo before the transfer window closes, with their goalkeeper set to be on the move.
John Victor has been linked with a move to West Ham this summer, and Botafogo have identified Miguel as a potential target.
Miguel made appearances in the cup competitions last season but didn’t take a bow in the Premier League, with Sels playing every game for the Reds.
One Premier League will take offence to Miguel deal
Crystal Palace will be waiting with the pitchforks if Botafogo try to take Miguel off Forest during the summer window.
Palace believe that something dodgy is going off with Evangelos Marinakis and John Textor – the owner of Botafogo – who left Crystal Palace after his mistake got them kicked out of the Europa League.
Miguel has his limitations as a stopper, and it’s fair to say that he’d relish the chance to return to Brazil and play some regular first-team football.
Miguel’s departure would leave the goalkeeping ranks somewhat short ahead of next season and a backup for Sels would need to be
