Leeds United must act soon to sign Nottingham Forest ace Neco Williams following the Premier League news.
Leeds United may not get a better opportunity to sign Nottingham Forest defender Neco Williams, despite Nuno Espirito Santo wanting to keep him.
After Djed Spence and Luke Ayling were allowed to leave the club this month, Daniel Farke has admitted that the Whites are in the market for new options at full-back.
According to Phil Hay, one of the names that has been brought up regularly is Forest ace Williams but there was resistance as the Premier League club look to keep hold of him with their new manager a fan of the player.
But it was announced on Monday night (15 January) by the Premier League that Forest have been hit with charges relating to FFP and Profit and Sustainability rules, meaning the club are clearly suffering financially despite the charges being labelled “unfair”.
Telegraph journalist John Percy then revealed that the club are operating on a “net-zero” policy for the January transfer window, which could see a perfect opportunity for Leeds to swoop.
The 49ers have got plenty of money in the bank, but also there is a clear need to bring in a player in those positions who can bolster the squad and make the team better. Obviously if that can be done, then promotion to the Premier League would have a better chance of happening too.
