Nottingham Forest revive interest in Arsenal's Nuno Tavares with Steve Cooper targeting FIVE new singings before transfer window closes

Nottingham Forest have revived their bid to sign Arsenal left-back Nuno Tavares on loan.

Talks for the 23-year-old looked to have collapsed last week with Aston Villa then showing an interest.

However, Forest are now hopeful of getting a deal agreed for the former Benfica defender with an option to buy.

In what promises to be a busy few days for Steve Cooper's club, Corinthians defender Murillo is due in for a medical on Tuesday ahead of completing his £13.75m move.

Forest have made a £7m offer for Benfica goalkeeper Odysseas Vlachodimos, who was among Manchester United's targets, and are in talks with Bologna over a swap that would see them bring in Nicolas Dominguez for midfielder Remo Freuler.
