🚨 BREAKING: Nottingham Forest Step Up Pursuit of Feyenoord Star Givairo Read With Improved €20 Million Bid
Nottingham Forest have intensified their efforts to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season by submitting an improved offer for highly rated Feyenoord right-back Givairo Read. Reports indicate that the Premier League club has tabled a second proposal worth a total package of €20 million, demonstrating their determination to secure the talented defender before the transfer window closes.
The 19-year-old has emerged as one of the most exciting young full-backs in Dutch football after impressing with Feyenoord. His pace, defensive awareness, and ability to contribute in attack have attracted interest from several clubs across Europe. However, Nottingham Forest appear to have taken the lead in the race by returning with an enhanced bid after initial discussions.
Sources close to the negotiations suggest that Read is open to making the move to England, with personal terms not expected to present any obstacles. This means the primary focus is now on reaching a final agreement between the two clubs.
Forest manager Nuno Espírito Santo is believed to be keen on adding greater depth and quality to his defensive options. The club views Read as a long-term investment who can develop into one of the Premier League’s top right-backs while also providing immediate competition in the squad.
Feyenoord, meanwhile, face a significant decision. Although they highly value the young defender and would prefer to keep him, a substantial offer could prove difficult to reject, particularly if the player is eager to take the next step in his career.
Negotiations remain ongoing, with optimism growing that a breakthrough could be reached in the coming days. If the transfer is completed, it would represent another ambitious move by Nottingham Forest as they continue building a squad capable of competing comfortably in the Premier League and pushing for higher ambitions during the upcoming campaign.
