Nottingham Forest agree loan deal for Arsenal left-back Nuno Tavares with £12m option to buy…. as the out-of-favour Portuguese star prepares for another spell away after spending last year with Marseille

Nottingham Forest have agreed a deal with Arsenal to sign Nuno Tavares on loan with an option to buy around £12million.

As Mail Sport reported yesterday, Forest had revived talks after the deal stalled last week and Aston Villa had considered the deal.

Forest will pay a loan fee around £1.2million and they are also signing Brazilian defender Murillo from Corinthians for £13.75million.

Tavares arrived at The Emirates in 2021, but has failed to establish himself in the Gunners first team and spent last season on-loan at Marseille.
