Following talk about Nottingham Forest’s move, Crystal Palace makes a significant decision regarding
Sam Johnstone. The latest report regarding Nottingham Forest’s transfer indicates that Crystal Palace is closing in on rumored target Sam Johnstone.Sam Johnstone, the goalkeeper, is allegedly no longer wearing the No. 1 jersey for Crystal Palace as a result of a transfer request and last week’s rumors linking Nottingham Forest to the player.
Even though Nuno Espirito Santo has an abundance of skill in the goalkeeping department, the 31-year-old Johnstone’s sale suggested the manager was not quite done with his summer makeover. After two seasons in South London, Premier League opponents Palace were said to have approved the shot-stopper’s sale after the player directly requested a transfer away from the team from manager Oliver
Glasner.In addition to Forest, Wolves, Southampton, and Leicester City are also said to be on high alert as the scenario progresses. The most recent decision now appears to indicate that a deal will probably be completed before the end of the month.The Daily Mail claims that Johnstone will lose the No. 1 position. Dean Henderson, a former Forest loanee who has worn the No. 30 since moving permanently from Manchester United for £20 million last August, will receive it.
The most recent information reveals that Palace is sticking to their £10 million asking price, although Bournemouth, a top-tier competitor, has already joined the list of potential buyers.
Nuno now has three options available, all of which were used throughout the preseason. While Matt Turner and the recently signed Carlos Miguel were given opportunities earlier in the summer, Matz Sels has started the last two friendlies.
