Nottingham Forest They agreed to a deal for Manchester City Goalkeeper Stefan Ortega is worth up to £500,000.
Sean Dyche’s side are also trying to sign Inter Milan midfielder Davide Fratesi, initially on loan with the option of a permanent transfer.
The 26-year-old has played 33 international matches for Italy and played 19 matches for Inter this season.
German Ortega, 33, is currently ranked third at the Etihad Stadium behind Gianluigi Donnarumma and James Trafford.
His contract expires this summer and he has not yet participated with Pep Guardiola’s team this season.
Forest’s need for a goalkeeper stems from a knee injury to John Victor which is set to rule him out for the rest of the season.
The City Ground club were in talks with Wolves over a move for Jose Sa, but have since switched to Ortega.
Ortega has made 56 appearances for City since joining in 2022 and played a key role in their Premier League title win in 2024.
He played 22 matches last season, including participation in the Club World Cup last July, and a defeat in the FA Cup final against Crystal Palace.
Forest, who are in the Europa League qualifiers and are 17th in the Premier League, have already signed Napoli striker Lorenzo Luca on loan and Crystal Palace rejected a £35m bid for striker Jean-Philippe Mateta.
