As the transfer window winds down, Nottingham Forest is on the hunt for a new player to bolster their squad. Despite already welcoming eight new players to the City Ground, the team is in need of a new striker before the window closes.
The latest addition to the squad is Alex Moreno on loan from Aston Villa for the 2024/25 season. However, Forest is still eyeing a new forward to strengthen their attack.
Rumors suggest that Forest may be close to securing their ninth summer signing, a specific forward player. Talks of a potential deal for Eddie Nketiah from Arsenal are circulating, with insiders indicating that it may be close to completion.
While Forest has made significant signings this summer, some players have also left the team. Jota Silva could potentially be loaned to Olympiacos if Forest is unable to secure Daniel Podence from Wolves.
Despite uncertainties surrounding Nketiah’s future at Arsenal, Mikel Arteta did not dismiss the idea of the player leaving before the deadline. Forest fans will have to wait and see if a deal for Nketiah materializes in time.
Although Forest won’t have Nketiah available for their upcoming match against Southampton, they can take confidence from Chris Wood’s goal in the opening game. Forest is hopeful that new signings will help solve their scoring issues from the previous season.
