Gonzalo Montiel is increasingly likely to leave Nottingham Forest in the January transfer window and return to Sevilla.
That’s according to Estadio Deportivo, who say the loan deal at Nottingham Forest ‘could not have gone worse’ and the conclusion is inevitable.
They explain that Montiel is going through the same situation at Nottingham Forest that Loïc Badé experienced a year ago when he joined on loan from Rennes but failed to make his debut in six months and eventually left before joining Sevilla in January.
He eventually joined Forest on loan with a mandatory purchase clause if the right-back played a certain number of games, in this case 50% of the available games, but that now looks ‘impossible for him to fulfil’ as he’s played a secondary role and is now injured.
The ‘situation is unsustainable’ and it now seems inevitable that the Argentine will cancel the loan in order to return to Nervión in the January transfer window.
The big question is what happens to Montiel after that, with a potential return to Argentina on the cards, but either way his future will seemingly not be in England with Forest.
