Championship outfit Nottingham Forest are reportedly keen to sign Asmir Begovic from Premier League Bournemouth.
Nottingham Forest fans should be keeping a close eye on the snowballing transfer saga surrounding Fiorentina’s Bartlomiej Dragowski – but not because they have been linked with the Viola star seen as one of the most exciting young goalkeepers in Europe.
Instead, Dragowski could hold the key to Forest’s chances of bringing the experienced Asmir Begovic to the City Ground over the next few months.
SDNA claimed recently that Nottingham Forest were looking to enhance their goalkeeping options by signing the Bournemouth stopper.
Despite making more mistakes that led directly to a goal than any other Premier League player except David de Gea in 2018/19, Bosnian Begovic has shone in the top flight with Chelsea and Stoke and, if he can rediscover his very best form, he’d be a clear upgrade on Costel Pantilimon.
And it seems that Bournemouth could be ready to cash in.
The Mail claimed that The Cherries will accept £7.5 million for the 31-year-old as they appear to have a replacement lined up already.
Alfredo Pedulla claims that Bournemouth bid £9.7 million for Fiorentina’s highly-rated Pole Dragowski – 24 hours before Artur Boruc signed a new one-year deal at the Vitality Stadium.
It remains to be seen whether Dragowski ends up at Bournemouth but if he does this could have some rather major repercussions at Nottingham Forest.
