This season's Premier League has three newly promoted teams: Bournemouth , Fulham and Nottingham Forest . The other two teams have not made many large-scale signings. Nottingham has signed many players. . This summer, this veteran team will spend at least 70 million euros in the transfer market.
The team spent a transfer fee of 20.5 million euros to sign Nigeria active international and powerful forward Taiwo Awoniyi from Bundesliga powerhouse Union Berlin . The 25-year-old scored more than 20 goals for the team in Berlin last season and is a key player in the team's ability to qualify for the European competition while maintaining a third-line battle.
The transfer fee when Awoniyi joined Union Berlin was only 6.5 million. This transaction made the team a net profit of 14 million. The team also quickly won the Golden Boot of the Swiss Super League last season as Awoniyi's replacement.
Defender Biancone from Troyes has joined Nottingham with a transfer fee of 10 million euros. The two parties signed a 3-year contract. The French defender is tall and powerful, and can play as a full-back on the left or right and as a central defender. And the player is only 22 years old, so he is undoubtedly a potential stock.
In addition, the team signed Mainz captain Moussa Nyakat with a fixed transfer fee of 10 million plus a floating amount of 5 million. The 26-year-old centre-back has spent four years in the Bundesliga. In four years, he played 135 games for the team, scoring 9 goals and 4 assists.
The transfer fee when the player transferred to Mainz was only 6 million, and Mainz will earn at least 4 million euros from this transaction.
The team also loaned England marginal goalkeeper Dean Henderson from Manchester United . The player will stay at Nottingham for one season. The player wants to go to a team that can play the main role to ensure playing time, so that he can qualify for the World Cup.
In addition to the four players already signed, the team also has at least two target players.
They are negotiating with Bayern Munich for left-back player Omar Richards. It is reported that Nottingham's offer is 10 million euros. The player transferred to Bayern on a free transfer in July 2021. He played 17 games for the team last season and contributed 1 assist.
player is not an indispensable player for Bayern, so the team is definitely open to his departure and can send him away as long as the price is reasonable.
Nottingham is likely to face competition from Stuttgart and Lyon . However, Bundesliga teams have always been stingy, and it is difficult to spend 10 million in cash for a full-back. Therefore, Nottingham has a great chance of winning. Moreover, the player himself once played in Reading in the English Championship and is not so unfamiliar with the English league.
Nottingham are also hoping to sign defender Neco. Williams who plays for Liverpool . The asking price of Red Army is 20 million pounds, while Nottingham's asking price is 16 million pounds, there is not much difference between them. Nottingham Forest may face competition from Fulham.
Most of the above-mentioned players are defenders or forwards, especially the defenders. The team has spent a lot of money. The team will definitely need to pursue useful midfielders to increase their rigidity. With the existing players already known to have spent nearly 70 million euros, the team will continue to buy people. The team's transfer fee expenditure in the summer may be close to 100 million.
The team's income from selling people was only 5 million euros when goalkeeper Samba left. This amount of money is a drop in the bucket compared to the transfer investment.
