Nottingham Forest will rival teams from around Europe for the signature of French midfielder Batista Mendy, according to reports.
The 23-year-old is attracting interest from the Premier League, Germany, Spain and his home nation, L’Equipe say, after being relegated with Angers this season. It is not expected that he will follow the club to Ligue 2.
Despite his club finishing bottom of the French top flight with a measly 18 points from 38 games, Mendy was a consistent performer, and those displays have not gone unnoticed.
