Nottingham Forest are reportedly interested in Udinese defender Rodrigo Becao, and the Reds are said to be among four clubs fighting for his signature this summer.

According to Mondo Udinese, Everton are currently in control of the situation, but Inter Milan and Napoli have also requested information as they discuss a move for him when the window reopens.

Forest is claimed to have attempted to sign centre-back Becao in the January window with the 27-year-old in the last 18 months of his contract and is expected to leave.

“A team that has requested information is Naplesbut at the moment there doesn’t seem to be anything concrete”, reports Mondo Udinese.

“Other requests come mainly from the Premier League with two clubs in particular who are really interested in his performance.

“The first is nottingham forest who tried to sign the Brazilian already this January. The second, however, is Everton, who have been in control of the core situation for longer.”

The chances of Becao leaving in the summer look like a good bet given that Udinese manager Pierpalo Marino explained that they may not be able to turn down a proposal at the end of the season.

“We want to surprise again as we did at the beginning of the season. We have every intention of making the most of the work that has gone into creating this team,” he told Rai Sport via Sport Witness.

It is clear that Becao and especially Beto -and we thank them- have given up a huge offer that came to them in the last days of January for him to stay here, but it will be difficult to do so for next season. Although in the end someone like (Rodrigo) De Paul stayed longer than expected because of the requests he had, he did two renovations.”
