Yoane Wissa transfer state of play - what we know so far...

As Nuno Espirito Santo’s Reds prepare for the January window deadline, the most recent

Nottingham Forest transfer news

With deadline day rapidly approaching, Nottingham Forest’s winter window might come to an

intriguing conclusion.

The Reds have had a slow January, so it is unlikely that there would be a rush of activity before to

Monday’s 11 p.m. deadline. Nuno Espirito Santo, the team’s head coach, has stated that they will

only look at “special” targets and won’t spend money just for the fun of it.

Brentford striker Yoane Wissa is one of the players Forest have had on their radar but it remains to

be seen if a deal gets done. Below, we take a look at how things have unfolded so far and what has

been said.

Forest went into this window with a strong squad already in place. As such, they have faced a

difficult balancing act between looking to bolster Nuno’s options and potentially disrupting those

solid foundations by doing too much work.

The pitch’s up front is the only actual place that requires improvement.Despite his excellent play

this season, Chris Wood might use some assistance in scoring goals. Given his ability to find the

back of the net, Wissa would undoubtedly do that.

The only other out-and-out forward in the locker room is Taiwo Awoniyi, who hasn’t really taken

off this season.However, Nuno has urged the Nigerian to return to his peak.
