BREAKING News:Nottingham Forest announce a new ownership finally
Nottingham Forest are said to be eyeing up free agent defender Oumar Solet. The 24-year-old is on the lookout for a new club after his contract with Red Bull Salzburg was terminated at the weekend.
And it seems he has no shortage of admirers, with the Reds among a group of Premier League teams to be credited with an interest. According to HITC, Forest have been “put on red alert” by Solet’s departure from the Austrian club. Aston Villa, Wolves and West Ham United are also said to be keen.
French outfit Marseille have reportedly “looked into a deal”, alongside Anderlecht and Inter Milan. As HITC point out, Forest are among the teams with space in their 25-man Premier League squad “for a free-agent addition”.
In a statement, they said: “FC Red Bull Salzburg and Oumar Solet have parted ways. The 24-year-old Frenchman’s contract, which still had a year to run, has been terminated early by mutual agreement.
“The centre-back joined our Red Bulls at the start of the 2020/21 season from Olympique Lyon. Over his four seasons in Salzburg, Oumar Solet made a total of 106 appearances (with four goals and five assists) – winning three league titles and an Austrian cup.
