Palmeiras president Leila Pereira has revealed that she ‘did everything’ to keep Gustavo Scarpa at the club before he moved to Nottingham Forest.
Scarpa completed a move to the City Ground on a free transfer in the January window, following the expiry of his contract with the Brazilian champions. He was a key player for Palmeiras as they lifted their 11th title.
He was given instant game time at the City Ground after moving to the Premier League, featuring in all three games in January after his move to the club. Scarpa also started the 2-0 win over Leicester City as well as the 2-0 loss against Fulham.
