Nottingham Forest have been drawing up a shortlist of transfer targets in recent weeks.
With the summer transfer window fast-approaching, Nottingham Forest’s recruitment chiefs are actively exploring a number of deals.
Napoli left-back Mathias Olivera is believed to be on Forest’s radar, and so too is St Pauli goalkeeper Nikola Vasilj.
Now, reports indicate that Vitor Pereira’s team is closely monitoring one of the top players in the Championship.
Nottingham Forest eye Sheffield United’s Gustavo Hamer
According to Sportsboom, Nottingham Forest are exploring a move to sign Sheffield United’s number eight, Gustavo Hamer.
Hamer is the top assister in the Championship, as he’s laid on an impressive 11 goals, despite operating in a poor side.
The Blades are languishing in 17th place, and yet, Hamer has still managed to put up some impressive numbers.
| Competition | Games | Goals | Assists |
|---|---|---|---|
| Championship | 30 | 2 | 11 |
| FA Cup | 1 | 1 | – |
| EFL Cup | 1 | 1 | – |
Gustavo Hamer
Forest are facing stiff competition for Hamer’s signature, as Everton, Brighton and Hove Albion and Leeds United are also circling.
The report claims that the East Midlanders view Hamer as a potential replacement for Morgan Gibbs-White, with Manchester City mooted as a potential destination again.
There will certainly be scepticism among the fanbase if Hamer were to replace Gibbs-White, as clearly there is a gulf in class between the pair.
Although the Blades talisman did register 11 goal involvements in his sole season in the Premier League, he is capable.
