“Nottingham Forest want to sign a new goalkeeper, Club has been working on deal, Contact already took place”- Reports confirm Forest have now made move to sign new goalkeeper this January as Turner and Vlachodimos both fail to impress
Nottingham Forest are keen on signing RB Leipzig goalkeeper Péter Gulácsi in the winter market.
Since the start of the 2022/23 season, the Hungary international has been reduced to a back-up role and the Tricky Trees want to open their door for the 33-year-old.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Nottingham Forest want to sign the experienced shot stopper and have made an ‘official request’ to the Bundesliga side.
Matt Turner has kept two clean sheets and conceded 26 goals from 16 league games, while Odysseas Vlachodimos has been used on five occasions in the league.
Bild also claim Nottingham Forest want to make Gulácsi their new No.1 and have offered him a deal until 2026.
Leipzig, for their part, don’t want to let the player leave because manager Marco Rose has stated he’ll give minutes to both first-choice goalkeeper Janis Blaswich and the Hungarian in the second half of the season.
Sky Deutschland also state Nottingham Forest are interested in Gulácsi, but haven’t made a written offer so far.
Unlike Bild, who talk of a contract until 2026, they say the Tricky Trees are aiming for a loan deal and this doesn’t please Leipzig, more so after Rose’s desire to retain the goalkeeper.
