Forest to sanction £20m Danilo sale if they can get deal for Brazilian trio over line
The completion of those transfers would likely signal the end of Danilo's spell at Forest, who signed the central midfielder from Palmeiras for about £16 million in January 2023. Botafogo are owned by American businessman John Textor, who is also the owner and president of Lyon, as well as co-owner of Crystal Palace. If the deal progresses, Danilo would be the third player Forest have sold to Lyon in the past year. Last summer the French club paid £27 million for defender Moussa Niakhate and about £15 million for midfielder Orel Mangala. Danilo suffered a horrific broken ankle in August and subsequently struggled to get back into the team in the second half of the season. As Nuno's side pushed for European qualification, the 24-year-old started only four of their last 15 Premier League matches. Other players who could leave Forest this summer are wingers Jota Silva, who scored three goals in 31 league games last season, and Ramon Sosa. Full-back Harry Toffolo, meanwhile, is set to depart as a free agent. As reported by Telegraph Sport last month, Forest are targeting a number of signings this summer as they prepare to make their return to European football. They are searching for two forwards, two wingers, a left-back and another goalkeeper as they look to add depth and quality to Nuno's squad.

Nottingham Forest star Danilo in talks over £20m move to Ligue 1 giants as Nuno Espirito Santo's side look to reshape squad ahead of European return
Nottingham Forest midfielder Danilo is in talks over a move to Lyon. The French side are offering around £20million for the 24-year old Brazilian who joined Forest from Palmeiras for £16million in 2023. Danilo broke his ankle just six minutes into the start of last season but battled back to fitness and returned to first team action in January going on to make 13 appearances. Forest are in the process of reshaping their squad for next season and need to offset some of their planned spending. They remain in negotiations with Botafogo for three players, striker Igor Jesus, centre back Jair Cunha and left-back Cuiabano. Cuiabano was a target for Brighton. Jesus, 24, was wanted by Forest in January. All three played in Sunday's 1-0 with over Santos and Mail Sport expects the deals to be completed following the Club World Cup. Forest are also hoping to fend off interest in Morgan Gibbs-White from Manchester City who have cooled slightly as they pursue deals for Tijjani Reijnders at AC Milan and Rayan Cherki of Lyon. However, other Premier Leagye sides are monitoring developments with Gibbs-White and winger Anthony Elanga who has been on Newcastle's radar.

Danilo Rangers transfer truth revealed as stirker was 'board signing'
It's claimed the Brazilian forward was recruited largely by the Ibrox board rather than a signing targeted by the manager in situ. The 26-year-old joined Rangers from Feyenoord on a five-year deal as Michael Beale's eighth signing of the summer transfer window in 2023. However, according to The Daily Record, Danilo was a signing approved by the board. The outlet claims Danilo was "further down the target list" than Cyriel Dessers who was signed in the same window. It's thought Dessers was not one of the top two choices to be signed by Beale when he was in charge and on the lookout for a striker. Haji Wright and Kasper Dolberg were favoured to Dessers, with Danilo a noted name but not high on the list of Beale's desired targets. However, Rangers would sign the Brazilian as the board believed it to be a solid piece of business. Since signing, Danilo has gone on to play 48 times for Rangers, scoring 12 goals and providing nine assists for the Ibrox side. The forward suffered significant injury issues in Glasgow with a jaor knee injury and broken cheekbone keeping him sidelined for extended spells.

This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇧🇷 here. Concern for Flamengo fans! Gerson felt a knee injury and had to be substituted by Danilo on Sunday (25), against Palmeiras, in the 10th round of the Brasileirã player left the Allianz Parque field in a lot of pain and applied an ice pack as soon as he sat on the bench. Gerson com a bolsa de gelo no joelho — Central do Flamengo (@CentralFlaNacao) May 25, 2025 The captain's exit raises an alert for Fla, amid the Libertadores decision next Wednesday (28). If they beat Táchira, the spot is well on track, but in case of a draw, Fla needs to hope that LDU does not beat Central Córdoba in Quito. If LDU wins, Fla will be overtaken by the Ecuadorians and will be out of the round of 16. The expectation for Rubro-Negro is a full house against Deportivo Táchira, with a projection of more than 63,000 fans attending the Maracanã, pushing the team in search of qualification for the round of 16. 📸 Wagner Meier - 2025 Getty Images

Hibernian 2-2 Rangers: Who impressed?
Jordan Smith. An under-rated goalkeeper in this league, the 30-year-old produced seven stops to deny him, the visitors might have run away with this game but - perhaps spurred on by his early mistake - he denied Cyriel Dessers and Danilo a few times.
