Nottingham Forest pay £12m in agents’ fees after £37.5m record deal | OneFootball

The Football Association published data showing Nottingham Forest spent £12 million on agents’ fees across the last two transfer windows.

The release covers all four divisions and relates to summer 2025 and January 2026.

The deals included a club-record £37.5m move for Omari Hutchinson from Ipswich Town, alongside Igor Jesus, Jair, Dan Ndoye, James McAtee, Douglas Luiz, Nicolo Savona, John Victor, Dilane Bakwa, Lorenzo Lucca and Stefan Ortega.

That outlay has not brought clear improvement on the pitch and, for the third time in four Premier League seasons, Forest are again battling relegation.

Forest’s payments were £1 million lower than the previous 12 months and place them towards the lower end of the Premier League. Their exact total of £12,210,822 ranks 16th in the division, with Fulham on £11m, Everton £10m and Burnley £7m below them.

Chelsea topped the list on £65m, with Aston Villa next on £38m. Manchester City and Liverpool followed on £37m and £34m.
