31-year-old is about to leave Nottingham Forest even though the window has closed
Serge Aurier is about to leave Nuno’s Nottingham Forest.
That is according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, who has named the club that
the former Tottenham Hotspur right-back could now join.
So, what has been reported about Nottingham Forest right-back Serge
Aurier? Let’s take a look.
Serge Aurier about to leave Nottingham Forest
Well, according to Fabrizio Romano, Serge Aurier is about to leave
Nottingham Forest for good.
The Italian journalist has reported on X that Aurier wants to join Galatasaray
and that the Turkish club are on the verge of reaching a final agreement
with Forest.
As you can see, Romano had earlier reported that although the former
Tottenham Hotspur right-back was keen on a move to Galatasaray, there were
issues over the payment structure between the Turkish club and Forest.
However, it now seems that the two clubs have decided to open talks again
and want to get a deal done.
The January transfer window in Turkey closes on February 9, which is the
reason why Galatasaray are still able to sign players.
My View: Serge Aurier exit from Nottingham Forest was inevitable
In my opinion, it was only a matter of time before Serge Aurier, 31, left
Nottingham Forest after the appointment of Nuno.
Nuno was appointed the Forest manager in December following the
sacking of Steve Cooper, and we did predict here that Aurier would be one of
the first players that the former Tottenham Hotspur boss would offload
in the January transfer window. As noted in The Mirror, just weeks after
taking over at Spurs in the summer of 2021, Nuno decided to offload him.
