Nottingham Forest have responded to an offer from Galatasaray for Orel Mangala.

That is according to Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg, who has reported on X interest from Juventus and Napoli as well in Mangala.

So, what has been reported about Nottingham Forest defensive midfielder Orel Mangala? Let’s take a look.

Nottingham Forest reject offer for Orel Mangala

Well, according to Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg, Galatasaray are interested in signing Orel Mangala from Nottingham Forest in the January transfer window.

Plettenberg has reported on X that Galatasaray have made an offer to Forest for Mangala. The Premier League club have turned it down.

The reporter has claimed that Juventus want to sign the defensive midfielder on a loan deal until the end of the season with an option to make it permanent.

Juventus have already made diect contact with Mangala, who cost Forest £12.7 million (Sky Sports) in transfer fees when they signed him from VfB Stuttgart.

Defending Serie A champions Napoli have also submitted a bid for the 25-year-old Belgium international defensive midfielder.

My View: Orel Mangala likely to leave Nottingham Forest in January

In my opinion, it is now looking very likely that Orel Mangala will leave Nottingham Forest in the January transfer window.

Napoli, Juventus and Galatasaray would not be so keen on the 25-year-old defensive midfielder had they not got some kind of indication that they could be able to get him.

Journalist Sacha Tavolieri has reported on X that Forest are “looking to sell” Mangala, who has struggled to play regularly in the starting lineup under head coach Nuno since he was appointed the Reds manager last month.

I think that it is a matter of time before Forest sell Mangala, who has scored two goals and given one assist in 45 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.
