Three days later, Sky Deutschland journalist Florian Plettenberg stated Galatasaray have made an offer for Nottingham Forest’s Orel Mangala. He also reported Juvenuts and Napoli are keen on signing him in the winter market.
A day later, we covered claims from Italy that the Serie A winners are aiming to sign the midfielder on a loan deal and want to overtake the Old Lady in the transfer race.
According to Calciomercato, the 25-year-old is keen on leaving Nottingham Forest and ‘wants to try a new adventure’ elsewhere this month.
The Belgium international has received interest from the two ‘important’ Italian clubs and this has ‘flattered’ him. Therefore, he’s putting pressure on the Premier League side to open the door for his exit on favourable terms.
It’s claimed Nottingham Forest were initially reluctant, but are now ready to evaluate his transfer through a loan deal with an option to buy.
Between Napoli and Juve, the report states the former are the most determined to secure Mangala’s services. Calciomercato state the Naples club want to get ahead of their league rival and secure a deal for the Belgian.
The Nottingham Forest player is a market opportunity for the Serie A duo and it needs to be seen who’ll win the battle for his signature.
