Summer Transfer Window 2025

Nuno almost exclusively played a back 3 at Wolves, didn't he? So, did Traore play as a wing back?

I think Ndoye will be coming in for the Elanga role and Traore will be replacing the Sosa role, which given Nuno's reticence to use Sosa and previous relationship with Traore seems like a positive move. There also remains talk of James McAtee and to have him considered as a potential depth to MGW rather than a replacement feels like another positive shift in the squad build. We still need to get things over the line but you start to see a pathway to a squad that is stronger than last year.

Ndoye gets the Romano HWG: x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1949857313801884017

The xitter replies are dumb and ugly even for xitter.

Good thing with not having an account is you can't see them

Feels like he is in our top tier category and he's going to cost us top tier money, so there will be a lot of expectation no doubt, but also supposed to be capable of living up to that billing, so fingers crossed.

Mine's basically dormant except for stuff like this. And, under a story about replacing a player sold for 55M, there are lots of "people" asking where Forest get the money. Including Chelsea fans.

Even if it could, Elanga was 20, Traore will be 30 in January.

40M + add-ons apparently, so probably our record signing now?

Romano says the Ndoye deal is getting closer and that Forest have had a £25m offer for James McAtee rejected by Manchester City.

Also Ndala is signing for Hull, so obviously didn’t impress enough here.

Had to look to see who that was.

It was pretty much exactly what a lot of United fans said when we signed him.

Admittedly, “United fans” & “credibility” aren’t words you often see together, so maybe I’m just emphasising your point…

Exchanged a message with a journalist type who reckons there has been no bid for McAtee but there have been talks.
