Chris Wood’s Nottingham Forest stance revealed as Saudi clubs eye transfer

Nottingham Forest are in the process of trying to tie Chris Wood down to a new deal, but it’s not proving to be easy as Saudi Arabian clubs are casting their eye.

Nuno Espirito Santo will be in a rush ahead of the January transfer window, as the likes of Ola Aina and Chris Wood are both in what seems like never-ending contract talks.

AC Milan and Roma have been eyed Aina, but contract talks are believed to be progressing.

The pair have been vital so far this season, with Wood bagging 10 goals in 18 appearances and Aina contributing in all areas of the pitch.

Nottingham Forest are working on a new deal for Chris Wood, but it seems as if Saudi clubs are keeping an eye on the situation.

The Athletic are reporting that Chris Wood does have interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia but the club believe he is happy at Forest.

It’s claimed that the Reds are hopeful a two-year contract can be agreed to extend the 33-year-old’s stay at the club.
