Nottingham Forest fans stunned as 'huge' transfer update emerges

Nottingham Forest fans have been left stunned by the latest link to signing a new striker in a “huge” deal before 30 August.

Reports in the Netherlands claimed Forest have turned their attention to Feyenoord striker Santiago Gimenez and will make a “concrete” move soon.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have been targeting a new striker this summer as a result of Chris Wood and Taiwo Awoniyi’s inconsistency but have been unable to get a deal done so far.

Now, as reports of interest in the Mexican forward did the rounds on social media, fans are growing excited about the potential deal.

Gimenez scored 23 league goals in 30 appearances last season, as well as providing six assists, as he helped his side to win the Dutch Cup.

Football Insider revealed last month that Tottenham had set their sights on Gimenez to solve their own striker issue as the high-profile interest in his signature ramps up.

As a result, if Forest manage to beat Premier League rivals to his signature, the deal would be seen as a huge coup by the recruitment team.

Fans have taken to social media in the wake of the news, with a potential deal described as “way too good” and “perfect” for the club.
