Latest Nottingham Forest news from NottinghamshireLive amid transfer links with reported Reds target Callum Hudson-Odoi
Hudson-Odoi spent the second half of the season in Germany on-loan at Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen but he failed to settle having provided just a single assist whilst also failing to score a goal during his time there.
Forest have been linked with a summer move for the 22-year-old with The Daily Mail reporting earlier this month that Chelsea want £10million for his services.
But a major transfer rival has emerged which could see the Reds miss out on the Chelsea player. Journalist Fabrizio Romano tweeted on Tuesday, claiming that Hudson Odoi “has been approached by two Saudi clubs today.”
He claims that “talks have not started yet on the player side” and that it is “not clear yet” whether he would accept the move. Transfer interest from Saudi Arabia for Premier League talent has become a big story during the summer transfer window.
Ruben Neves will leave Wolves to join Al Hilal in a reported £47m deal with Chelsea’s N’Golo Kante also set to make the move to the Middle East as well as goalkeeper Edouard Mendy, winger Hakim Ziyech and Kalidou Koulibaly. It follows after Cristiano Ronaldo joined Al Nassr at the end of last year after leaving Manchester United.
