Nottingham Forest expresses confidence in securing the services of Borussia Dortmund winger Giovani Reyna this month, despite ongoing Financial Fair Play issues and interest from Marseille, according to insights from HITC Football. The East Midlands club, facing challenges with Financial Fair Play alongside Everton under Sean Dyche, remains optimistic about fending off competition from Ligue 1’s Marseille for the American player’s signature.
As the transfer window deadline approaches, Forest is actively exploring the market to bolster their squad, identifying Borussia Dortmund’s Reyna as a viable target. In a notable development, the club has reportedly reached a preliminary agreement to bring Reyna on loan for the remainder of the season, with an option to buy. However, Marseille has reportedly matched Forest’s offer for the 21-year-old forward.
Despite Marseille’s entry into the race for Reyna, Nottingham Forest exudes confidence in winning the competition for the exciting young player. Reyna has seen a decline in his playing time at Signal Iduna Park under head coach Edin Terzic, and Borussia Dortmund appears open to his departure, possibly as a cost-cutting measure following the acquisitions of Jadon Sancho and Ian Maatsen.
The 21-year-old Reyna, born in the North East of England while his father Claudio played for Sunderland, could prove to be a significant addition for Nuno Espirito Santo’s Forest as they strive to avoid relegation. The article notes that the extent of Forest’s punishment for breaching Financial Fair Play rules remains unclear. Nevertheless, if the deal with Reyna materializes, it is seen as a commendable signing for the club.
