Jota Silva set to join Besiktas on loan

Nottingham Forest winger Jota Silva looks to be on his way out of the City Ground just a year after signing, with Turkish side Besiktas close to tying up a deal for the Portuguese forward.

Journalist Fabrizio Romano says the move will be an initial loan worth around €3m, with an option to make it permanent for €17m - and that clause could even become an obligation.

The 26-year-old arrived at Forest last season and has featured 38 times in all competitions, chipping in with four goals, three assists, and a handful of bookings along the way.

Silva is due to travel to Turkey on Thursday night to undergo his medical and put pen to paper.

The news comes in the same week Forest sacked head coach Nuno Espírito Santo after a very public clash with owner Evangelos Marinakis. Former Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou was swiftly installed as his replacement.
