Keylor Navas to Nottingham Forest transfer takes 'complicated' twist

Nottingham Forest's pursuit of Keylor Navas is currently looking 'complicated' with PSG reluctant to sanction a move.

That is according to Fabrizio Romano, who claims the French champions are yet to give Navas the green light to move on loan despite the 36-year-old's interest in a move. Forest are keen on signing a new goalkeeper before tomorrow's deadline after current number one Dean Henderson picked up an injury in the 2-0 win over Leicester earlier this month.

With the length of Henderson's absence still unclear, Navas has emerged as Forest's first choice target and they are looking to sign him on loan until the end of the season. Navas is now very much second choice to Gianluigi Donnarumma in Paris but an injury to the Italian shot-stopper would very much leave them short between the sticks.

PSG boss Christophe Galtier spoke on the prospect of Navas leaving prior to their fixture with Reims at the weekend, and seemingly left the door open for the Costa Rican despite this latest update. He said: "The transfer window ends in four days and I am very focused for the match.

"Keylor is a great competitor, he has been exemplary in his work since the start of the season. He was appointed goalkeeper for the Coupe de France.

"There are also what he feels, and the sports management is listening. We will see the day after the transfer window the reality of the workforce. But on the part of the man and on the part of his career, we must respect him, and we must to listen."
