Negotiations for Jota Silva’s possible switch from Nottingham Forest to Sporting have stalled, suggesting he may remain with Forest in the near future.
Nottingham Forest is asking for approximately â¬16 million for Silva, preferring a sale over Sporting’s offer of a loan with a purchase option.
Sporting’s president, Frederico Varandas, directly involved himself to accelerate the deal, but Forest is insistent on a complete transfer.
If no deal is reached, Silva will continue his contract, which runs until June 2028. Sporting’s final offer of â¬19 million was rejected by Forest.
Last season, Silva played in 37 games for Forest, scoring four times and providing two assists, though he had fewer opportunities in starting roles.
With the deadline approaching, fans await clarity on Silva’s role, given his limited appearances this season.

Since joining AGF in 2022, Madsen has been pivotal, set to significantly bolster København’s middle field capabilities.
Supporters are optimistic about Madsen’s arrival, hoping it propels the team to greater successes in league competitions.
As the window closes, fans are keen to see how new players like Madsen will alter the team’s dynamics in forthcoming matches.
