Nottingham Forest have held “talks” with Spain international Alejandro Grimaldo, claims The Athletic.
The 27-year-old left-back will be a free agent at the end of the season after deciding not to renew his contract with Benfica, and the player is reported to be attracting interest from the Premier League.
Benfica reached the last eight of the Champions League thanks to a 7-1 aggregate win over Club Bruges, with the Reds’ target playing 180 minutes over the two legs for the Portuguese side.
