Nottingham Forest working on Borja Sainz deal

On June 13, Brown informed Football Insider that Forest are working on finding a successor for Elanga, with several candidates already on their list for the summer. The former scout, who has over a decade of expertise in top-level player recruitment after working for Manchester United during their most successful period, has stated that Nuno wants to add a new source of goals to his side ahead of next season. “Nottingham Forest will look to strengthen,” he said Football Insider. “Their recruitment has recently been great, and they’re able to bring players into an environment where everyone works together to benefit the team. “Their scouts will have been working hard and looking at Sainz because he is someone they want to sign.

“It appears he will be departing Norwich. “They’ll know not only his on-field abilities, but also how well he’ll fit in with the squad. “He scored a lot of goals, which is always a plus, and the manager wants to add additional goals to his squad so they don’t have to rely on Wood to perform his magic again. “They’re looking at the Championship market because it offers a lot of value. “I know he has suitors, including large teams like Bilbao and Porto, but Forest’s Premier League and European experience may give them an advantage. “They will be able to offer higher salaries and the opportunity to play in the Premier League.

“So whether they can get a deal done remains to be seen, but it’s something they could look to do because they’ve done their homework on him.”
