Nottingham Forest in 'open race' to complete January transfer for winger

Nottingham Forest have reportedly "enquired" about the availability of Union Berlin winger Sheraldo Becker and "want" to sign the player during the January transfer window.

Becker, 27, has enjoyed a strong start to the season for the German side, scoring eight goals and assisting a further five for teammates across all competitions. The Suriname international has been moved to a more central role in the attack since the Reds signed Taiwo Awoniyi from the capital club during the summer.

While playing together over the previous two seasons, the pair combined to assist six goals for each other. Since arriving for what was at the time a club-record fee at the start of the summer, Awoniyi has scored three goals and is Forest's top scorer so far this season despite starting less than half of the club's Premier League matches.
