Nottingham Forest are working on signing Fiorentina’s Dodô this summer and have already made concrete moves. 

The right-back is in his final year of contract, and the Serie A side haven’t succeeded in securing his renewal.

Therefore, the club have made him available in the market. Nottingham Forest will be his next destination if there are no late setbacks.

On Wednesday, Sport Witness covered multiple claims from Italy of Nottingham Forest’s ongoing negotiations with Fiorentina and Dodô.

La Viola are close to offloading him and his move to the City Ground seems imminent. The Premier League side want to sign him on a permanent transfer, without a mention of a fee or the salary details.

Sport Mediaset picks up on that and shares a short but an important update about the Reds.

He’s on the verge of changing clubs, as Fiorentina have found an agreement with the English club. The latter are paying €10m plus bonuses for the Brazilian and there was no mention of personal terms.

Nottingham Forest one step away 

La Nazione, a newspaper local to the Italian club, are also reporting the fullback is on the verge of leaving the club.

Oliver Glasner’s side have made a concrete move with Fiorentina for a deal worth around €10m excluding bonuses.

Nottingham Forest have to agree on to personal terms with Dodô and the two parties are negotiating his salary.

That’s the ‘only thing missing’ for the Reds to find a total agreement. The parties are already at work to sort this out and there’s confidence in the player moving to England.

To sum it up, the two clubs have reached a €10m plus agreement and Dodô agreeing on personal terms is missing.

Last season, the fullback played 3,907 minutes from 47 matches, managing two goals and three assists.
