Nottingham Forest Eye £75m AC Milan Star Following Failed Nico Williams Pursuits
Nottingham Forest are intensifying their search for a marquee signing as the transfer window nears its climax. After their pursuit of Athletic Bilbao’s Nico Williams ended in disappointment, the Premier League club has turned its attention to AC Milan’s prized asset, valued at £75 million.
Williams, the 21-year-old Spanish winger, was Forest’s top target. His explosive pace and ability to play on both flanks made him an ideal addition to Steve Cooper’s squad. However, despite their best efforts, the deal fell through due to Williams’ reluctance to leave Bilbao, where he is considered a key player for the future. Williams has been attracting interest from multiple top European clubs, but his loyalty to Bilbao and the club’s firm stance on keeping him proved to be significant hurdles.
With time running out in the transfer window, Forest have swiftly moved on to another high-profile target—AC Milan’s star player. The identity of the Milan player remains closely guarded, but reports suggest that Forest is willing to splash out £75 million to bring him to the City Ground. The Milan star is highly regarded in European football, known for his technical prowess, versatility, and ability to influence games from midfield or attack.
Nottingham Forest’s ambition in the transfer market underlines the club’s determination to establish themselves in the Premier League after their return to the top flight. Last season, they narrowly avoided relegation, and this summer has seen them make several signings to strengthen their squad.
While the pursuit of the Milan star is ongoing, the deal is expected to face stiff competition from other clubs. AC Milan are also keen to retain their key players as they aim to challenge for the Serie A title and make a deep run in the UEFA Champions League.
As the transfer deadline approaches, Forest fans eagerly await the outcome of this audacious move. Whether the club can secure their desired target will be a significant indicator of their ambitions this season.
