Player due Tuesday, Rui Borges loses another man at Sporting | OneFootball

Ousmane Diomande is getting ever closer to leaving Sporting to join Nottingham Forest. The Ivorian centre-back is already in London, where he is undergoing the necessary medical examinations before completing his transfer to the Premier League club.

The 22-year-old travelled to England on Sunday and is currently in the British capital undergoing physical tests. Once that stage is completed, the player is expected to sign a contract with Nottingham Forest and officially join the English club.

Confirmation of the move, however, is not expected to come this Monday. Due to logistical issues related to the process, the official announcement of the centre-back as a Forest signing is only expected on Tuesday, by which time all procedures should be completed.

. Despite the difficulties encountered during the process, Sporting and Nottingham Forest ultimately reached an agreement for the transfer of the Ivory Coast international.

The English club, owned by Greek businessman Evangelos Marinakis, will pay €40 million for the defender. Diomande is therefore preparing to bring his time at Alvalade to an end and begin a new adventure in the Premier League.
