Speculation surrounds Croatian midfielder Mateo Kovacic as he may be on the verge of a transfer this summer. Nottingham Forest is reportedly poised to outmaneuver competitors in their pursuit of Kovacic.
According to respected journalist Ekrem Konur, who shared the news on his X social media account, the Manchester City player could be switching clubs as soon as the next transfer window opens. Nottingham Forest views Kovacic as a pivotal addition to bolster their midfield ahead of the new season.
Nevertheless, Nottingham Forest is not alone in its interest. Serie A giants AC Milan and Juventus are also in the running to sign the 32-year-old, with Aston Villa listed as another possible destination for the experienced midfielder.
Kovacic’s extensive Premier League experience is regarded as a significant advantage, providing Nottingham’s coaching staff with the opportunity to enhance their midfield’s dynamism and reliability. Last season, he made only 9 appearances for Manchester City, contributing 1 assist, while his current market value is estimated at 10 million euros, according to Transfermarkt.
