JUST IN: Nottingham Forest Player issue impossible Transfer fee demand while attaching ultimatum conditions.
According to UOL, Nottingham Forest paid €4m to Corinthians for goalkeeper Miguel. The 25-year-old is reportedly entitled to receive a portion of this transfer fee from his former club.
Initially, Corinthians agreed to pay R$2m [€332,884] to Miguel for 20% of his rights. UOL reports that this payment was supposed to be made within five days of his move to the English club on July 9th. However, the Brazilian goalkeeper has yet to receive the money.
Frustrated and tired of waiting, Miguel is now demanding that Corinthians pay him 20% of the total transfer fee received from Nottingham Forest, amounting to €800,000. The report does not clarify Corinthians’ current position on the matter.
Since joining Nottingham Forest, Miguel has made one appearance in the EFL Cup against Newcastle United, which ended in a penalty shootout loss. In the Premier League, Nuno Espírito Santo has preferred Matz Sels over Miguel as the starting goalkeeper.
