Nottingham Forest have reportedly missed out on signing Sporting left-back Rúben Vinagre to Everton.
The former Wolverhampton Wanderers player is set to return to the Premier League on a season-long loan from the Portuguese giants. Forest were linked with a move for the 23-year-old over the weekend.
For the Reds, additions on the left-side of defence could still be necessary despite signing Harry Toffolo from Huddersfield Town as fellow summer signing Omar Richards has a hairline fracture in his leg and is set to be sidelined for several weeks. Álex Moreno is another left-back option that continues to be linked with a move from the Iberian Peninsula.
