Joao Carvalho must be kept at Championship outfit Nottingham Forest but will Samir Nasri leave the Premier League?
Samir Nasri might just have become hugely important to Nottingham Forest’s summer transfer plans.
The experienced Frenchman is facing an uncertain future at West Ham United right now with his short-term contract due to expire at the end of the season.
Nasri, who has made just five Premier League appearances since joining the Hammers in December, will find out whether he will be offered a new deal this week (the Standard).
But, according to SDNA, the Greek giants Olympiakos are putting together plans to bring the former Arsenal and Manchester City star to Piraeus.
Olympiakos are already in talks with the 31-year-old’s representatives, according to SDNA. And this is where Nottingham Forest come in.
Olympiakos seem to have made a natural number ten their top summer target and SDNA claimed recently that they were also looking at Forest’s Portuguese starlet Joao Carvalho.
The club’s £13 million record signing has made a real impact at the City Ground, despite being in and out of the starting XI under Martin O’Neill. And Forest fans were understandably concerned when reports emerged suggesting their most naturally gifted player could be on his way.
So the City Ground faithful will be hoping that Olympiakos sign Nasri instead in order to ease their fears.
