Reports have emerged linking Nottingham Forest to the Dusan Vlahovic race, despite already securing Brazilian striker Igor Jesus. Jesus is set to join Forest after the Club World Cup, where he has impressed fans with his performances and potential for the upcoming Premier League season.
Although Forest has shown interest in Vlahovic, transfer expert Graeme Bailey suggests that the club’s focus is on Jesus, whom they believe to be a top-class striker. With Chris Wood also in the mix, Bailey believes there may not be room for Vlahovic and his high salary demands.
While signing Vlahovic would be a major coup, the confidence and belief the club has in Jesus is even more promising. Jesus has been turning heads at the Club World Cup with his goals and performances, showcasing his ability to compete at a high level.
Despite Vlahovic’s limited playing time at Juventus, Forest’s decision to prioritize Jesus over a high-profile signing like Vlahovic seems to be a wise one. Jesus’ success in the tournament and potential in the Premier League are reasons for Forest to have faith in their new Brazilian striker.
