Nottingham Forest Close In on Club-Record Move for Dan Ndoye

The move underscores Forest’s intent to strengthen its attacking flanks, leaving Napoli to pursue other winger targets.

Overview

Reports indicate Forest have agreed a verbal deal with Bologna and Dan Ndoye that includes a €42 million fixed fee plus add-ons and a 20% sell-on clause, taking the total cost above €49 million.
Ndoye has informed Bologna he prefers a Premier League switch and is due to travel to England for a medical within 24 hours.
Napoli stepped away after capping their offer at €35 million plus bonuses, unwilling to match Forest’s higher bid.
Antonio Conte and Napoli’s directors are now evaluating alternatives such as RB Leipzig’s Antonio Nusa, Chelsea’s Raheem Sterling and Lazio’s Mattia Zaccagni.
Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis personally led negotiations with Bologna’s board to secure the winger, marking a new transfer record for the club.
