Nottingham Forest and Fulham in battle for signature – PL duo can offer ‘richer contract’ than rival

Towards the end of last season, L’Equipe reported that Nottingham Forest and Fulham had initiated contact to sign Logan Costa from Toulouse.

Fast forward to July and Il Resto del Carlino talks about Nottingham Forest and Fulham’s interest in the 23-year-old as they provide the latest on Bologna’s pursuit of a defender.

Bologna’s Riccardo Calafiori is set to join Arsenal soon, while they are likely to start the season without Colombia international Jhon Lucumí, who was injured in the Copa América.

Thus, the Serie A team is looking for a new central defender, and Udinese’s Jaka Bijol has been identified as one of the targets. They value him at 18 million euros, while Bologna offer 12 million euros.

The report states that this is the fee needed to sign Costa, but it will not be easy for Bologna as Nottingham Forest, Fulham, Atlético Madrid and Villarreal are all interested in the Toulouse player.

It is also claimed that both the Reds and Marco Silva’s side, along with the La Liga duo, can offer “richer contracts” to the Cape Verde international than the deal offered by Bologna in recent hours.

Costa’s deal runs until 2026 and Il Resto del Carlino does not mention his preference between Nottingham Forest, Fulham, Atlético, Villarreal and Bologna.
