Day of the transfer deadline for Nottingham Forest: news as Nuno Espirito Santo searches for late additions
Welcome to our live transfer deadline-day blog for Nottingham Forest! Today is sure to be busy nationwide, especially at the City Ground as the Reds try to add a few players to their roster.
In the last few hours of the window, they still have a good deal of work to do. They want to add players, but they also want to reduce the number of players under head coach Nuno Espirito Santo. The boss of Forest has made it apparent that they are working within a “difficult” window and might not achieve their goals.
This month was never going to call for a complete squad overhaul, and Forest’s determination to prove to the Premier League that they take the accusations of breaking Profitability and Sustainability rules seriously has only served to focus their attention.
It would be wise business for them to close a few deals with some new faces. The goal is to balance the inflows and outflows at the end of the month in a way that either breaks even or results in a tiny net profit. The ideal situation would be to do that while making sure Nuno has enough strength in depth throughout the pitch.
