Roma eye Nottingham Forest's Dan Ndoye as Greenwood deal falls through

Nottingham Forest's Dan Ndoye could be on the move to Roma after the Italian club missed out on Mason Greenwood. The Switzerland international has struggled to cement his place at the City Ground in 2025-26.

What happened?

Roma were reportedly in negotiations with Olympique de Marseille over a potential deal for Greenwood, but were unable to strike an agreement. The Turkish giants Fenerbahce have since stepped in and have offered Greenwood a salary of €8m-€10m per year.

Why it matters for Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest are open to letting Ndoye go after just 12 months, and the club's valuation of the player has 'dropped' in recent weeks. The City Ground outfit are expected to 'step up' in their pursuit of new arrivals, including the contracts of Paulo Dybala, Zeki Celik, and Lorenzo Pellegrini.

What comes next?

Roma will report for pre-season training on Monday and are expected to 'step up' in their pursuit of new arrivals. The Italian club are reportedly considering Nottingham Forest's Dan Ndoye as an alternative to Mason Greenwood, who has joined Fenerbahce.

As of July 14, 2026, Nottingham Forest are 16th in the Premier League with 44 points from 38 games, 11 wins, 11 draws, and 16 losses.
