Nottingham Forest is advancing discussions to sign Pape Matar Sarr from Tottenham Hotspur as of August 28, 2026. Talks reportedly involve a paid loan with an option to buy, following Sarr's limited action with Tottenham this preseason. Previous interest from Monaco remains but depends on their ability to offload striker Folarin Balogun. Sarr is viewed as a valuable addition for Forest, who believe he would receive more playing time under manager Oliver Glasner. Tottenham is seeking €25 million for the midfielder amidst ongoing negotiations.
