Murillo
January 2026
United are linked with Murillo as they plan for a potential Maguire departure when his contract expires. Reports say Murillo is being considered and may be open to leaving despite a long contract, but any deal would be expensive and not straightforward.
Arne Slot
November 2025
Liverpool’s season hit a new low with a 3-0 home loss to Forest, their sixth defeat in seven matches, dropping the champions to 11th and handing them their heaviest Anfield league defeat in four years as Murillo, Savona and Gibbs-White exposed soft defending. Slot admitted the result was “a smack in the face” before PSV’s visit, a remark that angered many supporters who feel his tone understates the crisis. With Liverpool already having lost more league games than in the entire title season, pressure and scrutiny on his methods are intensifying.
Murillo (Nottingham Forest)
October 2025
Bayern Munich are weighing a move for Forest’s 23-year-old defender Murillo, valued at €55 million. The club must offload players before making a formal bid amid competition from Real Madrid and Chelsea.
Sport Bild says Murillo’s long-term contract until 2029 complicates matters, as Forest are under no pressure to sell. Bayern view him as a long-term successor in their defensive rebuild.
Murillo (Nottingham Forest), Marc Guehi (Crystal Palace)
October 2025
Chelsea could revive their pursuit of Nottingham Forest defender Murillo in January after ruling out a move for Marc Guehi. The Blues see Murillo as a key option for Enzo Maresca’s project.
Guehi, whose contract expires next summer, is expected to join Liverpool or Real Madrid instead. Chelsea, having previously targeted Murillo, are now considering him again given his form and importance at Forest since his 2023 move from Corinthians.
