Nottingham Forest player resisting move – 2 weeks of efforts to convince him have failed

On November 17th, Rádio Itatiaia stated Atlético Mineiro had given up on the possibility of signing Nottingham Forest’s Gustavo Scarpa after he decided to continue in Europe.

The 29-year-old, who joined the Tricky Trees at the start of this year, has been on loan at Olympiacos since the last window. He has clocked in just over 400 minutes from 11 games this season and has been linked with a move away from the Greek club.

Internacional have become the latest club to show interest in the Nottingham Forest man, according to Globo Esporte.

The Brazilian club believe the former Palmeiras man could form a partnership with the likes of Alan Patrick and Charles Aránguiz, if he were to join them. This is why they have now identified the 29-year-old as the main transfer target.

It’s claimed the South American club have been talking to the attacking midfielder for ‘two weeks’, to try to convince him to ‘accept the offer’.

Sources close to the Nottingham Forest owned player have told Globo that his plan is to ‘remain in Europe’, to showcase his qualities, which hasn’t happened just yet.

If Scarpa were to be convinced, the outlet doesn’t specify whether Internacional want him on loan or a permanent transfer. Nottingham Forest’s stance on a potential transfer is also not mentioned.
