Nottingham Forest might have made their first summer signing, but that hasn't stopped the transfer rumour mill from rolling.
The Reds have added Taiwo Awoniyi to their ranks, with the forward penning a five-year deal from Union Berlin. And there will be more additions before the window closes on September 1, as head coach Steve Cooper prepares for life in the Premier League.
Owner Evangelos Marinakis has pledged to back his manager in the transfer market. "Now is the time to give Steve all the ammunition he needs, to be able to not only survive but bring some good results," the Greek has said. "We have to invest more. Everybody talks about the television rights and money that comes in, but it is not enough for clubs in the first year.

"That’s why we must not be the poorer relatives of the Premier League. We need to buy some good players and some that will make the difference and have the experience who know the division. We need to be careful how we spend and make the right choices."
Plenty of players have been linked with moves to the City Ground. Here's the list of names, so far.
Ben Brereton Diaz
Nottingham Forest reportedly "fancy their chances" of re-signing academy graduate Ben Brereton Diaz from Blackburn Rovers this summer, according to teamTALK.
The 23-year-old left the City Ground initially on loan as a teenager in August 2018 before making the move to Lancashire permanent the following January. Brereton Diaz has scored 31 goals in over 100 appearances since departing, 22 of which came last season as Rovers fell short of a play-off position in the Championship.
After having a one-year contract extension option activated by the club back in May when the striker was set to be a free agent this summer, it is claimed that Blackburn are "looking to cash in" this off-season now that they can secure a transfer fee. As many as five Premier League clubs are said to be interested.
Habib Diallo
Nottingham Forest are said to be among a number of Premier League clubs tracking Strasbourg striker Habib Diallo.
There is uncertainty over the future of Lewis Grabban as his contract comes to an end, while decisions will need to be made on fellow forwards Lyle Taylor and Nuno Da Costa, who have been out on loan. Forest do have Sam Surridge and Brennan Johnson in their ranks, and they are expected to try to bring Keinan Davis back to the City Ground after he impressed on loan from Aston Villa.
According to ESPN, they are also keen on Diallo, who joined Strasbourg from Metz in October 2020. At the time, the 26-year-old penned a five-year deal for a reported £9million fee.
But the Reds are not the only ones linked with a move, with “multiple Premier League clubs” eyeing him up. West Ham United and Brighton & Hove Albion are also said to be keen, while Leicester City and Borussia Mönchengladbach have previously been credited with an interest.
Milan Djuric
Nottingham Forest have been linked with a summer move for free agent striker Milan Djuric.
Djuric will be out of contract at Italian outfit Salernitana at the end of this month and is yet to pen a new deal. Forest and fellow top-flight side Brentford are interested in securing his signature, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.
The forward is also said to have admirers elsewhere in Italy, including Fiorentina. Besiktas have also been suggested as potential suitors.
The 32-year-old has had a taste of English football previously, with Bristol City. He scored five goals in 31 games for the Robins between January 2017 and the summer of 2018, before moving to Salernitana.
Joe Rothwell
According to teamTALK, Nottingham Forest could be close to making Rothwell their first signing of their new Premier League era.
Rothwell, 27, is out of contract at Blackburn Rovers and has reportedly rejected the offer of new terms at Ewood Park. They claim that Scottish side Rangers had also been close to an agreement, but the lure of Premier League football has been enough to persuade Rothwell to move to the City Ground.
He grabbed three goals and ten assists in 41 Championship outings this term, operating as either an attacking or defensive midfielder.
Will Smallbone
Southampton midfielder Will Smallbone has been given the "green light" to depart on loan amid interest from Nottingham Forest.
The 22-year-old is looking for somewhere that he could receive plenty of game time having recently returned from a ruptured ACL that he suffered in 2020. He made just four appearances in the Premier League under Ralph Hasenhuttl last term.
According to The Sun, Hasenhuttl has told Smallbone - a Republic of Ireland Under-21 international - that the Saints would be happy to let the 22-year-old spent a year away before returning to fight for a spot in the starting eleven.
The Sun claims talks have been held "with a number of clubs in both the Premier League and Championship, though a move abroad has not been ruled out. Clubs in Germany and Belgium are being considered."
Mickael Nade
Nottingham Forest are said to have “set their sights” on French defender Mickael Nade as they plan for life in the Premier League.
Centre-back Nade has caught Forest’s eye, according to French website L’Equipe. But they will face competition for the Saint-Etienne man’s services.
Saint-Etienne face a summer overhaul, following relegation from France’s top-flight, with Nade reportedly among the players who could leave. In addition to the Reds, Ligue 1 side Angers are also said to be keen on securing his signature.
The 23-year-old, who has two years left to run on his contract, started out at AAS Sarcelles, before coming up through the ranks at Saint-Etienne. Although he made his Ligue 1 debut in 2017, it was a loan spell at Quevilly-Rouen last season which really helped him progress, with this campaign then proving to be something of a breakthrough.
Armando Broja
Nottingham Forest are understood to be considering a move for Chelsea striker Armando Broja following promotion to the Premier League.
Broja spent last season on loan at Southampton and enjoyed an excellent spell before tailing off in the final weeks off the campaign, scoring six goals and registering one assist in 32 appearances. The 20-year-old is a quick and powerful number nine who is highly rated at Stamford Bridge and has been linked with Everton and West Ham in recent days.
With four years left on his contract, Chelsea are unlikely to sell with Forest far more likely to push for a loan deal if they do move. The Reds will count on manager Steve Cooper's excellent reputation for developing young talent and will be able to point to the progress of Djed Spence and James Garner this season during their loan spells.
Morgan Gibbs-White
Forest are ready to move for Wolves forward Morgan Gibbs-White, who excelled on loan in the Championship with Sheffield United.
The 22-year-old, who saw his penalty saved by Brice Samba in the play-off semi-finals, netted 12 goals and assisted a further 10 in 37 appearances for the Blades. He is valued at around £20million and Forest could face competition from Southampton, while Wolves boss Bruno Lage is also keen to retain the player.
Gibbs-White is a fan of Cooper after playing for him when England won the Under-17 World Cup and NottinghamshireLive understands Cooper remains a huge admirer of the versatile forward.
Joel Piroe
A report from Planet Swans claimed ahead of the Championship play-off final that Forest could move for Swansea City striker Joel Piroe.
The forward has been linked with a move to the Premier League via Leicester City, although those talks have been played down with the Foxes holding priorities elsewhere on the pitch.
A tally of 24 goals across all competitions will have plenty of clubs taking an interest in the former Netherlands Under-20 international.
The 22-year-old is contracted to the Welsh outfit until 2024, although boss Russell Martin says the forward's representatives are "in no mood to talk" about a new deal at the Liberty Stadium.
However, NottinghamshireLive understands the Reds are not considering Piroe at this stage.
Connor Goldson
Nottingham Forest are ready to offer Connor Goldson the chance to play in the English Premier League, according to a report.
Manager Steve Cooper is said to be a big fan of the Rangers defender and wants to make him part of his top flight squad, according to the Scottish Sun.
The 29-year-old's contract at Ibrox is nearing an end and while the Light Blues haven't given up hope of him signing a new one and staying, it's viewed as unlikely.
The chances might diminish even more with the promise of Premier League football down south. Goldson has barely missed a match for Gers since Steven Gerrard brought him north from Brighton in 2018.
Joe Rodon
Nottingham Forest are interested in Tottenham Hotspur defender Joe Rodon.
Centre-back looks to be one of the priority positions for Forest in the summer market, with Tobias Figueiredo and Loic Mbe Soh the only senior back-up options. Forest have already been linked with a handful of names since earning promotion to the Premier League three days ago, but the last is Tottenham centre-back Rodon.
According to our colleague Alasdair Gold, Tottenham Hotspur correspondent for Football.London, Forest "certainly" have an interest in Rodon, who played under countryman Steve Cooper at Swansea City.
The 24-year-old came through the academy ranks at Swansea before joining Tottenham in the summer of 2020. He has only made 24 appearances in all competitions across two seasons with the north London club. He is now keen to move on this summer and a reunion with Forest boss Steve Cooper could be high on his agenda.
Jamaal Lascelles
Nottingham Forest have been linked with a move for former academy player Jamaal Lascelles.
The 28-year-old struggled for game time at St James' Park towards the end of last season and could drop further down the pecking order should Eddie Howe recruit more in central defence.
According to The Athletic, Forest are one of "a clutch of clubs" to be monitoring the defender.
Tom Lawrence
Forest could look to inflict double misery on Derby County by signing captain Tom Lawrence, according to TEAMtalk.
Scottish giants Celtic and Rangers have both been tipped as having an interest, whilst Leeds and Southampton have also been named as potential destinations for the 11-goal forward.
Lawrence's contract at Pride Park is up for renewal next month and, with the club still in administration, it is claimed that they will not be in a position to offer him an extension.
Gareth Bale
Nottingham Forest signing Gareth Bale is perhaps an unlikely tale given his incredible quality, but then again the Welshman reportedly came close to a move back in 2009 so we shouldn't rule anything out.
Bale has played his last game for the Spanish giants who secured the Champions League trophy following a 1-0 victory over Liverpool and eyes are now fixed on where he will end up.
Cardiff City have been deemed by Sky Bet as the favourites to secure Bale having been priced at 1/3 to land what would be a remarkable transfer. But the Wales captain could fancy a move to other clubs in the MLS while a return to Tottenham and a switch to Newcastle are also options according to the bookies.
In recent days Forest have shot into the odds list and are now priced at 20/1 just below Atletico Madrid.
Issa Kabore
NottinghamshireLive understand that Manchester City youngster Issa Kabore is a summer transfer target for Nottingham Forest.
The 21-year-old is coming off the back of an excellent season on loan in Ligue 1 with City's sister-club Troyes, where he played 31 times, as an attack-minded defender. He also helped Burkina Faso reach the semi-finals of the African Cup of Nations, where he was named young player of the tournament after registering three assists.
Kabore was signed from Mechelen in 2020 after making just five first team appearances before being loaned back to the Belgian club. He has just completed another strong loan spell with Troyes but the path to the City first team is blocked by the imposing figures of Kyle Walker and Joao Cancelo.
Cooper's track record for developing young talent could be a deciding factor as to whether Forest are successful in capturing Kabore on a loan deal.
Nick Pope
Nottingham Forest were said to be "ready to try their luck" with a bid for Burnley goalkeeper Nick Pope.
Despite their relegation to the Championship, the Clarets were said to value the England stopper at a staggering £40m. Forest were seemingly keen on the 30-year-old, while he also wants to stay in the top flight.
According to The Sun, Forest were readying a low bid for Pope in the hope that Burnley will reluctantly let him go. However, he has since signed for Newcastle United.
Callum Styles
Nottingham Forest have Barnsley man Callum Styles on their "radar" as they build a squad for the Premier League.
The 22-year-old left-sided midfielder has been a previous target for the Reds having reportedly made a move for him in January.
Styles has been one of the Tykes' stand-out players over the last two seasons, including this term when he scored three goals and contributed two assists in 46 appearances across all competitions as they were relegated to League One.
According to the Yorkshire Post, Styles is on the radars of Hungarian side Ferencvaros as well as Forest and other Premier League sides. Styles, a Hungarian international through his grandmother's roots, featured for his adopted country as a substitute in England's 1-0 defeat in Budapest on Saturday (June 4). It was Styles’ third cap for the Magyars.
Luka Milivojevic
Nottingham Forest have been linked with a move for Crystal Palace central midfielder Luka Milivojevic.
Ryan Yates will likely continue to be a consistent option in the team, but James Garner has returned to Manchester United after his loan spell and will stake a claim for a first-team role at Old Trafford. Cafu and Braian Ojeda are alternative options, although it is unlikely that they will be regularly called upon by Cooper. Tyrese Fornah has recently returned from a loan spell at Shrewsbury Town.
According to SDNA, Forest are interested alongside Fulham and fellow Evangelos Marinakis-owned club Olympiacos.
Attila Szalai
Nottingham Forest are said to have scouted Fenerbahce defender Attila Szalai as they prepare for a big transfer window.
It is set to be a summer of change at the City Ground as boss Steve Cooper looks to put a squad in place capable of holding its own in the Premier League. That will mean incomings and outgoings in the coming weeks.
And reports claim the Reds have Hungary international Szalai on their radar. According to Turkish newspaper Takvim, they watched the 24-year-old in action on Saturday as he played the full 90 minutes of a 1-0 Nations League victory over England in Budapest.
Artem Dovbyk
Nottingham Forest are said to have started talks over a move for Ukrainian striker Artem Dovbyk.
A busy summer is expected at the City Ground as boss Steve Cooper looks to shape his squad, ready for the top-flight. That will include bolstering his attacking resources to ensure the Reds have plenty of goals in their side.
Forest were linked with 24-year-old Dovbyk over the weekend. The forward currently plays for Dnipro-1, in his homeland, but he could be on the move in the coming weeks.
Noah Okafor
Nottingham Forest have been named as an interested party in Swiss forward Noah Okafor.
The 22-year-old striker missed parts of this past season due to a hamstring and toe injuries, but still found the net nine times and contributed nine assists in 21 Bundesliga appearances.
Okafor, a Swiss international, is mostly used as a central forward but has also been used on the left wing. Despite his young age, he has plenty of European experience having featured in the Champions League and Europa League for current side RB Salzburg and also FC Basel.
Taty Castellanos
Nottingham Forest are said to have “opened negotiations” over a move for Argentine forward Taty Castellanos.
It is a crucial transfer window for the Reds as they prepare for their return to the Premier League after a 23-year absence. And bolstering his attacking options is a priority for boss Steve Cooper.
Castellanos was reportedly on Forest’s radar in January, and that particular link has resurfaced as the player looks set to leave New York City in the coming weeks. As well as the Reds, a number of other clubs have been credited with an interest in the 23-year-old.
Lucas Joao
There have been mixed reports over whether Nottingham Forest are interested in signing Reading forward Lucas Joao this summer.
The 28-year-old Angola-born striker is the latest name to be linked with a transfer to the City Ground following the Reds' promotion to the Premier League. Joao, a two-time Portugal international, is contracted to the Madejski Stadium until 2023.
According to Darren Witcoop of the Sunday Mirror, the Reds are 'leading the race' for Joao with Reading resigned to losing him this summer. He adds that Watford, recently relegated from the Premier League, are also interested but Steve Cooper's side are in pole position.
Will Unwin of the Guardian, however, says there is "nothing in Lucas Joao to Nottingham Forest talk".
Adem Zorgane
Nottingham Forest 'appreciate' Sporting Charleroi midfielder Adem Zorgane 'very much'.
Overseas reports have claimed that the club 'very much' appreciate Belgium Pro League midfielder Zorgane. The 22-year-old only signed for RSC Charleroi last summer from Algerian side Paradou AC and enjoyed an eye-catching season with two goals and six assists.
The report claims that Forest boss Cooper wants to take his time before coming to a final decision on the signing, with Will Smallbone and Morgan Gibbs-White also linked with a move to the City Ground this summer.
Ainsley Maitland-Niles
Nottingham Forest want to sign Arsenal midfielder Ainsley Maitland-Niles and the Gunners are "ready to sell" him, according to reports.
Maitland-Niles has recently returned to England having spent the second half of last season at Roma in search of greater playing opportunities.
According to John Cross of The Mirror, Forest have made the 24-year-old a transfer priority this summer and have already made contact with Arsenal to enquire about his availability.
Neco Williams
NottinghamshireLive understands that attack minded Liverpool right-back Neco Williams is of interest to Steve Cooper and the recruitment team. The 21-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan with Championship winners Fulham, where he played 14 times as the Cottagers joined Forest in winning promotion.
Williams has also lined up alongside Forest forward Brennan Johnson for Wales, with Brennan's father, former Reds striker David Johnson, tweeting that Forest should '1,000 percent' sign Williams, who can also play on the left - another area where Forest could strengthen with Max Lowe currently back at Sheffield United.
Arnaud Kalimuendo
Nottingham Forest transfer target Arnaud Kalimuendo has reportedly rejected a move to the City Ground.
The 20-year-old scored 12 goals in 34 league appearances whilst on-loan from PSG to fellow Ligue 1 side RC Lens last season.
Rabbi Matondo
Nottingham Forest are one of six sides competing for Schalke winger Rabbi Matondo's signature this summer.
The 21-year-old - who is primarily a right-winger, but can also feature on the left or up-front - spent last season on loan from Schalke at Belgian side Cercle Brugge. He scored nine goals and contributed two assists from 26 league appearances in 2021-22.
According to German outlet Bild, Steve Cooper could look to add another Welshman to his squad after Brugge opted not to exercise their option to buy the forward.
Cyle Larin
Nottingham Forest are not interested in signing Besiktas forward Cyle Larin this summer, contrary to reports.
Larin, a Canada international, has been linked with a move to Forest following the Reds' promotion to the Premier League.
The Reds will compete in the top-flight for the first time in 23 years, but Larin is not seen as a target for Steve Cooper's recruitment team in their preparations for life in the Premier League.
Dean Henderson
Nottingham Forest are working on a deal to bring Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson to the club.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reported the Reds are working on a loan deal for the one-cap England international with a view to a permanent £20m transfer. Nottinghamshire Live understands the Reds are hoping to complete a transfer with the suggestion being that Henderson is keen on the move after playing second fiddle to David de Gea.
If a deal does go through it would have major implications on Forest with Henderson - and United - likely to expect first team football for a player who is now 25.
Moussa Niakhate
Nottingham Forest have made their stance clear on their pursuit of athletic French defender Moussa Niakhate.
NottinghamshireLive understands that Steve Cooper is keen to sign the centre-half and that the club have held talks with the player who has been a Bundesliga regular for Mainz for the last four seasons. The 26-year-old left-sided central defender has a year left on his contract at the club where he has made 135 appearances in all competitions and scored nine goals.
Forest are looking to strengthen several areas of their squad this summer to ensure they have the strongest side possible to cope with the step up to the Premier League, having gained promotion in the Championship play-offs last month. If Niakhate were to arrive at the City Ground, he would provide competition for Joe Worrall, Scott McKenna and Steve Cook - with Tobias Figueiredo having already left and Loic Mbe Soh unlikely to feature in the Premier League.
Goncalo Ramos
Nottingham Forest are reportedly interested in signing Benfica forward Gonçalo Ramos this summer.
The 20-year-old striker had previously been linked with a loan move to the City Ground in the January transfer window, but Jorge Jesus' sacking prompted regular starts in Liga NOS, scoring seven goals in 29 league appearances.
According to Portuguese outlet Record, Forest are interested in Ramos this summer, with Benfica open to selling their man for €40m (£34m).
They won't be alone in any pursuit for the Portugal Under-21 international, as the report claims German giants Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund and Newcastle United are also keeping tabs on Ramos.
Taiwo Awoniyi
Nottingham Forest made striker Taiwo Awoniyi their first addition of the summer transfer window.
The 24-year-old penned a five-year deal from Union Berlin. The Reds shelled out a club record fee of £17.5m to secure his services.
Awoniyi scored 15 goals in 31 Bundesliga appearances last season. He also contributed two assists. The move marks a return to English football for the Nigeria international, after he began his professional career with Liverpool.
Tyrhys Dolan
Forest are reportedly one of three clubs "keen" on signing Blackburn Rovers forward Tyrhys Dolan this summer.
The 20-year-old scored five goals and assisted another three in 34 appearances for Rovers across all competitions last season. Dolan has been a first team regular at Ewood Park for the past two seasons since breaking through as an 18-year-old.
An England under-20 international, Dolan has two years remaining on his current contract after signing an extension in February 2021. The deal also includes the option of adding on an additional 12 months, which would then see it run until the summer of 2025.
TalkSPORT's Geoff Peters is reporting the Reds' interest in Dolan as well as other "serious interest" from Scotland. "Blackburn’s highly rated Tyrhys Dolan is attracting serious interest north and south of the border," the broadcaster tweeted.
Gustavo Scarpa
Forest are not interested in signing reported target Brazil international Gustavo Scarpa this summer.
The 28-year-old has spent the last four-and-a-half years at back-to-back Copa Libertadores champions Palmeiras, playing the full 90 minutes in last year's extra-time win over fellow Brazilian side Flamengo. Scarpa is currently still in the middle of his season as the Brazilian league begins in April and ends in November.
Mainly deployed as an attacking midfielder or as a left winger, Scarpa has scored seven goals and assisted another seven across all competitions this calendar year. Back in February's Club World Cup final, he played the entire 120 minutes as Palmeiras lost to Chelsea.
Initially reports from Brazil claimed the Reds - along with fellow Evangelos Marinakis owned side Olympiacos - have opened talks with the wideman. NottinghamshireLive understands this is not the case and he is not seen as a summer target.
Domen Crnigoj
Italian media were busy on June 22 linking Forest with an interest in Venezia midfielder Domen Crnigoj.
The 26-year-old was described as being in the "crosshairs" of Nottingham Forest according to TuttoMercatoWeb; he made 34 appearances last term for the Serie A outfit.
Crnigoj, whose contract runs until 2025, is believed by NottinghamshireLive to not be a transfer target this summer.
Nicolas Tagliafico
Nottingham Forest have "registered an interest" in former Barcelona transfer target Nicolas Tagliafico.
The Argentinian left-back is possibly being viewed as a replacement to loanee Max Lowe, who has recently returned to Sheffield United following a season-long loan with Forest.
Steve Cooper needs to sign a left-back this summer following Lowe's return to Bramall Lane. The Reds reportedly had a bid for the full-back rejected in January and it is not yet known whether they will return this summer for the 25-year-old.
Moise Kean
Nottingham Forest have been linked with a summer transfer move for Everton striker Moise Kean.
The Italian striker spent last season on loan at Juventus as part of a two-year loan, after leaving the Serie A giants for £25.1m in 2019. However, Dušan Vlahović's arrival in January limited his starts for Massimiliano Allegri's side and he managed only six goals in all competitions.
Kean's spell in England has failed to live up to the expectations since moving to Merseyside, scoring only four goals in 39 appearances for the Toffees, and falling behind Dominic Calvert-Lewin as Everton's main centre-forward.
Joe Aribo
Nottingham Forest are one of three Premier League clubs reportedly 'really interested' in bringing Rangers midfielder Joe Aribo back to England this summer.
The London-born Nigeria international has spent the last three years north of the border but has just a year left on his current contract and has apparently 'made it clear' that an extension won't be signed to stay at Ibrox Stadium. Aribo previously played three seasons at Charlton Athletic, helping them to League One promotion before being tempted to Scotland by then-manager Steven Gerrard.
At just 25 years old, Aribo has almost has almost 250 club appearances to his name but has become particularly productive at Rangers in recent seasons. Last campaign, the attack-minded midfielder scored nine goals and assisted another 10 as the Glasgow giants were runners-up in the Europa League final and lifted the Scottish FA Cup.
Jesus Vazquez
Nottingham Forest have reportedly submitted a bid for Valencia defender Jesus Vazquez but face competition for his signature.
The 19-year-old Spaniard could be being lined up as a possible replacement for Max Lowe, who is going to be involved in Sheffield United's pre-season plans after a loan spell at the City Ground.
According to Spanish outlet COPE (via Sport Witness), the approach from Steve Cooper's team has not been a subtle declaration of interest over a phone call. They say it has been more of a "hand and fast offer" tactic from staff at the City Ground.
John Ruddy
Nottingham Forest are reportedly eyeing up outgoing Wolverhampton Wanderers goalkeeper John Ruddy.
The Reds are searching for a new goalkeeper after Brice Samba rejected the offer of a new contract and informed the club of his desire to be sold this summer. Manchester United's Dean Henderson looks set to follow Union Berlin striker Taiwo Awoniyi through the entrance door at the City Ground, but Forest could be in the market for another man between the sticks.
The claim comes from talkSPORT's Alex Crook, who said on Saturday afternoon: "I am hearing whispers that John Ruddy could also be coming in as another option in the goalkeeping department."
Levi Colwill
Nottingham Forest have been linked with a move for Chelsea defender Levi Colwill.
The 19 year-old Blues defender spent the past 12 months at Huddersfield Town in the Championship, featuring 29 times and scoring twice as the Yorkshire outfit reached the play-off final. It was his touch on a James Garner cross which wrong-footed Terriers shot-stopper Lee Nicholls to provide the only goal of the game and send Forest into the Premier League.
Forest are looking for another central defender to add competition to Joe Worrall, Scott McKenna and Steve Cook. Tobias Figueiredo has already left and Loic Mbe Soh is unlikely to feature in the Premier League, and Fabrizio Romano claims the Reds may have found the ideal candidate.
Ivan Alejo
Nottingham Forest are said to have taken an interest in Spanish winger Ivan Alejo as they prepare for their Premier League return.
Taiwo Awoniyi became the Reds’ first signing of the summer transfer window at the weekend. The forward penned a five-year deal as he made the move from Union Berlin for a club record fee.
There will be more arrivals in the coming weeks as boss Steve Cooper looks to bolster his squad for the step up to the top-flight. And strengthening his attacking resources further will be key.
Who should Forest sign this summer? Let us know in the comments below
