Nottingham Forest €20m transfer ramped up as priority revealed

Turkish giants Fenerbahce have reportedly stepped up their interest in Nottingham Forest midfielder Ibrahim Sangare

Jose Mourinho’s side has made the player their priority transfer target after he struggled last season at Forest.

It is claimed the Yellow Canaries have bid €20m for the midfielder’s services but it is still unclear whether the Premier League side are willing to accept the terms – the player arrived from PSV Eindhoven for a fee of £30m last summer.

Since the turn of the year he has struggled to secure a first-team spot with the Portuguese manager opting for Danilo or Nicolas Dominguez in the holding midfielder position. With the arrival of Elliot Anderson from Newcastle United earlier in the window, Sangare looks to have fallen further down the pecking order.
