Following their big summer spend, Nottingham Forest might have used the January transfer window to calm things down a bit and allow their squad to gel.
However, an injury to Dean Henderson has led them to seek a new goalkeeper on the transfer market, and it appears they are also looking for a new midfielder.
The man Nottingham Forest are targeting right now is Inter’s Roberto Gagliardini, as his story with the Serie A side is now all but ‘over’.
That’s according to Calciomercato, who point out his contract is up at the end of the season, thus making him a cheap option for a number of clubs around Europe.
Right now, it’s Nottingham Forest who are ‘toying with the idea’ of taking him to the Premier League.
This is a transfer that, yes, would allow the Tricky Trees to strengthen their squad immediately, but they are also thinking about next season.
Now, the big question is whether Inter accept to part ways with him early, as he does still provide some depth in their squad, because it’s made clear that with just six days left in the transfer window, their chances of finding a suitable replacement are slim.
This, therefore, ‘drastically reduces the chances of saying goodbye now’, which is why it’s ‘easier to assume’ that Gagliardini, should he join Nottingham Forest, would do so in the summer.
