Nottingham Forest’s Champions League dream is alive—and it could pave the way for blockbuster signings.
This season has an air of Leicester City’s shock Premier League triumph, but Liverpool’s dominance adds a twist.
Yet, as Arne Slot keeps reminding everyone, Forest remains the only team to topple the league leaders so far.
With the January transfer window open, Nuno Espirito Santo has the chance to bolster his squad, and exciting prospects are already on the radar.
But what’s even more intriguing is Forest’s rumored ambition to target a potential Champions League-level signing should they secure qualification.
Forest Eyeing Victor Osimhen Move
Victor Osimhen, one of the world’s most sought-after strikers, has reportedly caught Forest’s attention.
Currently on loan at Galatasaray, the Nigerian forward boasts 12 goals and five assists in just 15 appearances this season, proving his ability to thrive in a top league beyond his Serie A dominance.
According to **Area Napoli**, Forest has placed Osimhen on their shortlist for Champions League ambitions.
However, while his profile is undeniably appealing, concerns about his steep financial demands might dampen the possibility.
Is an Osimhen Transfer Feasible?
The likelihood of Forest landing Osimhen is slim.
His sky-high wages and transfer fee would shatter Forest’s financial structure and existing policies.
While Champions League qualification could inject the club with substantial funds, Evangelos Marinakis and his management are reportedly cautious about taking such a monumental financial leap.
Still, the mere association with players of Osimhen’s caliber signals the ambition at Nottingham Forest—a club determined to make waves on the European stage if given the opportunity.
