Simon Falette has made four Bundesliga appearances this season and could reportedly be on his way to the Championship with Nottingham Forest.

It is all change at Nottingham Forest right now.

Aitor Karanka has gone with Martin O’Neill replacing him in the dugout. And news of the 66-year-old’s arrival came just a day after Forest appointed Jose Anigo as a transfer adviser during the January window.

According to The Sun (13 January, page 59), former Marseille manager Anigo has been brought in on a short-term basis to help the East Midland giants bring in a number of new faces before the end of the month.

And it seems that he is already getting to work. Because German publication Kicker has reported that Nottingham Forest are making a move for the Eintracht Frankfurt centre-back Simon Falette.

A French-born defender who plays his international football for Guinea, Falette moved to Frankfurt from Metz in 2017 but he has struggled for opportunities since Adi Hutter replaced Niko Kovac at the helm.

Falette has played just four Bundesliga games all season. And Kicker believe that he could be offered an escape route by Nottingham Forest, backing up The Sun’s claims that Anigo has been told to bring in a new centre-half.
