Nottingham Forest are unlikely to be very active in this month’s transfer window, though a few players might still be considered potential targets before the window closes.

In the short term, Forest face an important fixture against Liverpool, who have had an excellent start to the 2024/25 season and are currently performing well in the Premier League.

One player linked with Forest is Kang-in Lee from PSG, who is attracting interest from several clubs this month. Forest have reportedly joined the race for his signature.

However, it’s possible the club will hold off on significant spending. With European football a realistic goal next season, owner Evangelos Marinakis might prefer to save funds for the summer transfer window.

There could also be departures from the City Ground. Andrew Omobamidele has been linked with Leeds, while Willy Boly appears to have received interest from EFL clubs. According to Alan Nixon via his Patreon, Joe Gardner might leave on loan this month, with multiple EFL clubs showing interest.

Gardner has been praised for his performances, including by James Perch, who highlighted his display in a B-Team win over Carlisle in the EFL Trophy. Nuno Espirito Santo also commended Gardner after his FA Cup debut against Bristol City during the 2023/24 season.

A loan move seems to be the next step in Gardner’s development. The report suggests Burton is leading the race to sign the teenager, with Harrogate and Morecambe also expressing interest.

Gardner has impressed this season, scoring five goals and providing two assists in 13 appearances for Warren Joyce’s B-Team. He is versatile, capable of playing as a center forward or a number 10.

While loaning out players is beneficial, it’s crucial to choose the right clubs that suit their style and ensure adequate game time for their growth.

Previous loans for Esapa Osong and Manni Norkett to Rotherham and Cheltenham, respectively, were unsuccessful, as both players returned to Forest due to limited minutes.

For Gardner, securing a loan where he can regularly play and gain experience against senior opponents is vital for his progression.
