Forest target Reijnders - Wednesday's gossip

What the report says

BBC Sport Football’s Wednesday gossip roundup says Nottingham Forest are among the clubs tracking Manchester City midfielder Tijjani Reijnders, with the reported valuation at about £55m. The item also notes that Tottenham Hotspur are active in the market, with interest in Manchester City winger Savinho, Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson and other attacking options as they look to strengthen.

The report says Tottenham have been in contact with Manchester City over Savinho, while United States forward Folarin Balogun has also been offered to Spurs through intermediaries as his situation at Monaco remains uncertain. The same roundup adds that Spurs are monitoring Cody Gakpo and Eintracht Frankfurt’s Jean-Matteo Bahoya. If Savinho were to move, Manchester City could turn to Chelsea winger Pedro Neto, with contact already made with his representatives, according to the cited sources.

Elsewhere, Real Madrid are said to be preparing to reopen talks over Vinicius Jr’s contract, although the club is reportedly not ready to improve its latest offer. Chelsea feature in several links, including a move close to completion for Rayo Vallecano left-back Pep Chavarria and interest in Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa. The roundup also mentions Tottenham’s interest in Nicolas Jackson, with Chelsea valuing him at £65m.

As with all transfer gossip pieces, the focus is on reported interest rather than confirmed deals. The stories are drawn from multiple outlets and should be treated as developing speculation until clubs announce any agreement.
