Gustavo Scarpa is expected to sign a pre-contract agreement with Nottingham Forest - and it has been claimed that he could be loaned immediately to Olympiakos in December once his Palmeiras deal expires.
Scarpa, an attacking midfielder, has been an ever-present for Palmeiras in the Brazilian top flight. He has made 171 appearances over four years, scoring 29 goals. Before that he spent four years with Fluminense, playing 151 times in the same league.
In 2016 he was named the league’s best player as Fluminense went on to lift the Primeira Liga trophy and that earned him international recognition with his native Brazil, and interest from Europe.
