Roma linked again with Hudson-Odoi
Roma's transfer market is about to get into full swing as Gian Piero Gasperini has taken the reigns to the team. However, it remains to be seen who will handle the club's transfer business after the news of the dismissal of sporting director Florent Ghisolfi. Advertisement Despite this and the looming Financial Fair Play restrictions, Roma are reportedly very active ahead of the transfer window. According to English news portal Sunsport, Roma have once again set their sights on Nottingham Forest's Callum Hudson-Odoi. The player had already ended up on the Giallorossi's radar a few months ago. The former Chelsea player would fall into the category of players suitable for Gasperini's playing style and a first offer from Trigoria could soon arrive. Napoli and Manchester United are also interested in the midfielder. His value is around 25 million euros.

Nottingham Forest open Callum Hudson-Odoi contract talks as Man Utd in three-way transfer fight for winger
NOTTINGHAM Forest have opened talks to tie down Callum Hudson-Odoi to a new deal as Roma, Napoli and Manchester United circle. The 24-year-old winger lit up the City Ground last season with a string of dazzling displays, bagging five goals and three assists to help Forest qualify for Europe. 4 4 4 It's the first time in 30 years that Forest have secured a European spot. Now SunSport has been told the club's top brass are desperate to keep their star man out of the clutches of Europe's elite. Hudson-Odoi arrived from Chelsea in a cut-price £5m deal two seasons ago and now has just one year left on his current contract. Sunsport understands Manchester United enquired about him in January and were met with a firm 'no. Italian giants Roma and Napoli are sniffing around this summer for the three-time capped England international. And United are believed to be monitoring developments closely under new boss Ruben Amorim, who's keen to add pace and creativity to his wide options. Forest are refusing to budge though and believe Hudson-Odoi sees his future at the club especially with Nuno Espirito Santo backed to spend big for their European adventure. Club chiefs are ready to reward Odoi with a big-money extension to fend off the growing interest. A source close to the player told The Sun: 'Talks are ongoing and Forest have presented him with a new deal. 'But let's see, because there is also interest from clubs abroad like Napoli and Roma but it's early days. 'He was really happy with his season but obviously the hamstring injury at the end was disappointing. 'He believes he could have helped more but for that so let's see if he'll be happy with the deal presented or not.' Taiwo Awoniyi seen for first time since horror injury as he receives hero's welcome at Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea Hudson-Odoi came through the ranks at Chelsea where he made 156 appearances before spending the 2022/2023 season out on loan at Bayer Leverkusen. Forest then beat Fulham to his signature the following season as he penned a three year deal to move to the City Ground where he's enjoyed a revival. 4

'A different proposition'
Ideally, this summer will see Nottingham Forest build on the success of European qualification and near-misses in the FA Cup and making the Champions is pretty obvious where we need to recruit – injuries and fatigue caught up with us at the end of the season and losing the likes of Chris Wood, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Murillo cost us in important summer's business, adding Elliot Anderson and Nikola Milenkovic, was particularly astute. But the other signings did not strengthen the squad as we might have hoped, and the recruitment team will do well to find a few more rough, or even polished, are well stocked in central midfield but really need competition in defence and position now, compared with 12 months ago, is a different proposition for potential players - rather than battling relegation, those looking to make a name in the Premier League outside of the 'big six' have a new destination. And financially we are in a fairly good place to be growing the squad said, beyond new signings it is a time to consider how we develop tactically. Steve Cooper tried and failed to move from a 4-2-3-1 formation to 4-3-3, and it is no easy transition without well-drilled players and strategic possession and playing on the break has served Forest very well in recent seasons, but it was evident in the latter games of the campaign that when teams offered up the ball the Reds were not really sure how best to capitalise. What happens when we have more than 50% possession? How do we adapt to those games?That problem will rear its head again. Of course, I'm not the only one thinking this - and Nuno Espirito Santo will have inevitably started thinking about how we depth in players, as well as a settled squad and management team, will make the transition for the first time in a generation, we can start a new Premier League season without nervously looking over our shoulder and instead setting our sights above more from Pat Riddell at The Famous Club, external

Nuno Espirito Santo's side have secured European football for the first time since 1995 but are hopeful it will be in the Champions League.

COME ON YOU REDS! ❤️ — Nottingham Forest (@NFFC) May 25, 2025 Chelsea will confirm their place in the competition with three points, barring an unlikely swing in goal difference involving Aston Villa.

Murillo is a major doubt for Forest with the defender having failed to rejoin training during the week after an ankle issue. Morato will deputise if Murillo does not recover in time. Callum Hudson-Odoi could return to the starting side against his former side after beginning the win at West Ham on the bench.
