Nottingham Forest is ramping up their efforts to secure new signings for the upcoming season as they prepare to compete in the UEFA Conference League. The team, led by manager Nuno Espirito Santo, is aiming to bolster their squad after falling short of a Champions League spot last season.
Scoring more goals will be a priority for Forest, with top scorer Chris Wood set to be joined by new signing Igor Jesus. In addition to Jesus and Wood, the club has reportedly made an enquiry for Iranian international Mehdi Taremi, who currently plays for Inter.
Taremi’s potential arrival could spell trouble for striker Taiwo Awoniyi, who is currently recovering from an injury. Awoniyi, who played a crucial role in Forest’s promotion to the Premier League, may be surplus to requirements if another striker is brought in to compete with Jesus and Wood.
With the World Cup on the horizon, Taremi’s desire for regular game time could see him depart Inter for a chance at success with Forest. Meanwhile, Awoniyi’s future at the club remains uncertain, with potential interest from clubs across Europe given his goal-scoring record in the Bundesliga. As Forest look to strengthen their squad for European competition, Awoniyi’s time at the club could be coming to an end.
