Man City’s Kosovan keeper Aro Muric set for season-long transfer to Nottingham Forest
MANCHESTER CITY goalkeeper Aro Muric is reportedly set to complete a loan move to Nottingham Forest.
Muric featured five times for the Citizens last campaign – with each of his appearances coming in the Carabao Cup.
And according to the Telegraph, Forest are closing in on the signing of the Kosovo international.
John Percy tweeted: “Nottingham Forest will compete the signing of Manchester City goalkeeper Aro Muric in the next few days.
“Loan for the season. Big signing for Forest, with a number of clubs in UK and abroad also interested.”
The Championship side have already been busy in the transfer window, having snapped up Sammy Ameobi on a free transfer and Portuguese midfielder Tiago Silva.
Muric was loaned out to Eredivisie side NAC Breda last summer, but was recalled after one game in August following an injury to City‘s back-up goalkeeper Claudio Bravo.
