Nottingham Forest have received encouragement in their pursuit of Wolverhampton Wanderers‘ Marshall Munetsi.
The midfielder joined Wolves in February 2025, when current Nottingham Forest manager Vítor Pereira was at Molineux.
In January, Wolves let the 29-year-old join Paris FC on loan for the rest of the season. He was a regular in the Ligue 1, managing four goals and two assists from 978 minutes from 15 league matches.
Two months ago, the Zimbabwe international expressed his desire to extend his stay in the French capital.
At that time, he said: “We’ll see at the end of the season during our discussions. This is a wonderful project. My family likes Paris. My two boys were born here in France. It’s also a bit like my home country.”
Paris FC stance boost for Nottingham Forest
Le Parisien state Marshall Munets performed exceptionally for the French club and that convinced them to retain him.
Paris FC had prioritised this case, but the Wolves owned played won’t return to the club.
Sources close to the player now insists the chances of playing at Paris FC next season are ‘very low’.
Le Parisien state: ‘The Parisian management hasn’t, in any case, pursued negotiations very far so far. The player and his entourage are therefore looking elsewhere, towards leagues other than Ligue 1’.
Therefore, he’ll return to the English club, who will play in the Championship next season. The midfielder will likely join another club this summer.
Jeunes Footeux relay this report and then share their own updates on Nottingham Forest. They claim his €4m per salary was too high for Paris FC, which is why they didn’t push hard to keep him. This will certainly please other suitors, including the Reds.
Vítor Pereira’s side have started discussions with his entourage. The midfielder, who is also on the agenda of unnamed Saudi Arabian and Qatari clubs, has to make a decision.
