Earlier today, reports from the Italian media claimed that Orel Mangala has been putting pressure on Nottingham Forest for a winter exit.
It was said that the Reds were initially reluctant about letting him go, but are now ready to evaluate that possibility.
An update on this situation is now brought by TuttoMercatoWeb, who claims that Juventus and Napoli are interested in Mangala.
Now even though Nottingham Forest may accept to let him go on a loan deal, they want some ‘guarantees’ regarding the money they’ll receive from the move.
That means the Tricky Trees would only accept a temporary spell if there is an option to buy attacked to it.
In case, the option were activated, then the loan would end up being a free one, but if Mangala were to be returned to Nottingham Forest, then the deal would become a paid one, thus forcing the Italian club to compensate the Premier League club for not sending them triggering the option.
That’s no big news for Napoli, who found a similar deal to get Hamed Traore signed from Bournemouth in recent days.
It’s just not said how much Nottingham Forest are demanding for Mangala, as the battle between the two Italian clubs may even bring his price up a little.
