May 2025

Nottingham Forest are negotiating with Botafogo to sign striker Igor Jesus, left-back Cuiabano, and centre-back Jair Cunha. All three players are seen as key targets in Forest’s squad rebuild.
Talks are progressing well. Jesus, 24, is highly rated in South America; Cuiabano, 22, recently joined from Gremio; and Cunha is a Brazil U20 international. Forest aim to strengthen multiple positions this summer.
