Forest looking to aid survival push with new signings

da 888casino: Although Sean Dyche will undoubtedly be pleased to have taken a point against Premier League leaders Arsenal at the weekend, the result means his side are just five points clear of West Ham United, who won 2-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

There is still a healthy gap between Forest and the bottom three, but they are not out of the woods in the relegation battle, and they have set out to sign a new striker, with Arnaud Kalimuendo being shipped out to Eintracht Frankfurt on loan.

Napoli’s Lorenzo Lucca is among the main targets for the Tricky Trees, and crunch talks with the Italian’s entourage were held yesterday, but he is not the only option on the shortlist, with AS Roma’s Tammy Abraham and Brighton’s Evan Ferguson also of interest.

Dyche’s side are the second-lowest scorers in the Premier League this season, finding the back of the net just 21 times, but they showed their defensive mettle in the 0-0 draw against the Gunners at the weekend.

However, according to a report from Il Messaggero (via Sport Witness), Nottingham Forest remain keen on strengthening their backline, as they are now interested in signing Liverpool’s Kostas Tsimikas, who is currently out on loan at AS Roma.

Roma are currently trying to send the defender back to Anfield, and considering the left-back isn’t in Arne Slot’s plans either, a deal could be there for Forest to do.

Olympiacos, who are owned by Marinakis, are also keen on the full-back, and the Greek businessman has wanted to sign his compatriot for quite some time, as revealed back in the summer.

The Thessaloniki-born ace is also very impressive going forward, chipping in with ten assists during his time in the Premier League, and setting up 12 goals in 86 outings for former club Olympiacos.

Nottingham Forest could definitely do with bringing in a new left-back this month, with Fabrizio Romano confirming Oleksandr Zinchenko is set to sign for Ajax.

Neco Williams has started all 22 of Forest’s Premier League games this season, while also featuring regularly in the Europa League, so Dyche needs to bring in a left-back capable of pushing for the Welshman’s starting spot, and Tsimikas could fit the bill.
