A HUGE Boost to the Reds transfer chase after source reveal Nottingham Forest are steps ahead to leave Transfer rivals in Shambles over the signature of 24yr Old defensive Rock.
Nottingham Forest appears to be on the verge of winning another transfer battle against West Ham United, this time for the signing of Brazilian defender Vitão from Internacional. In recent days, local reports have suggested that West Ham is in talks to secure Vitão’s services, but according to Revista Colorada, who broke the initial news, Nottingham Forest has entered the race and is preparing an enticing bid to secure the player’s signature.
The report claims that Nottingham Forest has shown a willingness to pay a higher transfer fee than West Ham and has also offered Vitão a more lucrative salary package. These factors have positioned the Reds as the favorites to complete the transfer.
Additionally, the outlet suggests that Nottingham Forest views Vitão as a potential replacement for Murillo, who has attracted interest from Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona.
Nottingham Forest’s pursuit of Vitão comes on the heels of their reported success in fending off West Ham’s interest in another Brazilian player, Carlos Miguel. Recent reports from Brazil indicate that Carlos Miguel has chosen to join the Tricky Trees, despite West Ham’s willingness to pay his release clause.
Interestingly, the chase for Vitão has been primarily reported by Revista Colorada, with no major Brazilian outlets picking up the story thus far. This could potentially be a tactic to pressure West Ham into improving their offer, but the situation may become clearer as time progresses.
