Serge Aurier is reportedly “closing in” on a move to Nottingham Forest.
The former Tottenham Hotspur defender is currently a free agent after his Villarreal contract expired this summer. The 29-year-old made 24 appearances across all competitions in his sole season for the Spanish side, providing back-up to first-choice right-back Juan Foyth.
Aurier previously spent four years with Spurs, where he made a total 110 appearances before leaving in October 2021. Currently looking for a new club, the Ivory Coast captain is reported to be a target for Steve Cooper ’s side, who are looking to boost their defensive options.
