Returning from his loan at AS Monaco, Malang Sarr was always unlikely to break through under Mauricio Pochettino at Chelsea, especially with all the new signings made.

That’s why an exit from Stamford Bridge was always on the cards, and the Blues defender has now been gifted that opportunity by Nottingham Forest and Fulham.

This comes from Santi Aouna for Foot Mercato, who took to Twitter to reveal that both the Tricky Trees and the Craven Cottage side are ‘pushing’ to sign the Chelsea defender.

Fulham’s arrival on the scene can easily be linked with the fact that Tosin Adarabioyo is seemingly getting his desired move to AS Monaco, while it’s no secret that Nottingham Forest have been chasing defenders this summer.

The article adds both the Premier League clubs have an advantage on the competition, as ‘other clubs’ are moving behind the scenes to see if they can get a deal done with Chelsea.

Sarr is said to be ‘hungry for the ball’, meaning he wants minutes, and his desire is to ‘sign in a club where he can stay for a long time and play’.

He’s eyeing up an ‘ambitious project’, which the Nottingham Forest and Fulham are, wanting to build on last season’s respective finishes.
