On January 18th, L’Equipe reported Nottingham Forest are among the clubs to have made an approach for Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Keylor Navas.
It was also explained a move to the Premier League would appeal to the 36-year-old over Al-Nassr, who have also shown interest in him.
Le10 Sport now claim the Costa Rican has made the decision to join Nottingham Forest in the winter market.
After holding discussions with several clubs from Europe and the Middle East in the past few weeks, the stopper ‘opts for Nottingham Forest’.
Earlier this month, Steve Cooper’s side had advanced talks with the Ligue 1 winners and Navas’ entourage. This has paid off as the latter have rebuffed advances from Al-Nassr to turn to the English club.
The financial agreement between the Tricky Trees and Navas needs to be found, which is the ‘hardest part’. The South American collects close to €1m per month at PSG and Nottingham Forest will not be able to match it.
It’s said the ‘negotiations are underway’ between all parties to try to reach an agreement before deadline day. With Navas opting for Cooper’s side, a deal is likely to be agreed.
