Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano provided an update on the deal, and also revealed that Miltiadis Marinakis - son of Forest owner Evangelos - was playing a key role.
Romano posted on Twitter: "Remo Freuler to Nottingham Forest, here we go! Full agreement for €9m plus add-ons. Remo will sign until June 2025, medical booked.
"Huge signing, one more international Swiss midfielder and key player for Atalanta - Miltiadis Marinakis on it, showing ambition again."
Freuler has made 260 appearances for Atalanta during his time at the club, contributing 21 goals and 23 assists. Currently vice-captain at the Bergamo-based outfit, Freuler comes with an impressive pedigree, having featured 40 times across the Champions League and Europa League.
Meanwhile, Forest are also reported to have made a club record bid of around £20m for Watford striker Emmanuel Dennis.
