--><\/p>\n<p>Nottingham Forest have contacted Eintracht Frankfurt defender Arthur Teate about a possible move, according to Sky Swiss journalist Sascha Tavolieri.<\/p>\n<p>    The Belgium international has spent the past two seasons in Frankfurt and is understood to be open to a new challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Tavolieri says Forest are among the clubs who have made inquiries, along with Bournemouth, as interest in the defender begins to grow.<\/p>\n<p>Teate is a player with extensive experience in major European leagues.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to joining Frankfurt, he built a strong reputation in Italy during his time at Bologna, where his performances attracted widespread attention. His performances in Serie A earned him a move to Germany, where he continued to develop into one of Belgium&#8217;s most reliable defenders.<\/p>\n<p>This background explains why interest extends beyond the UK.<\/p>\n<p>According to Tavolieri&#8217;s report, Teate remains highly regarded in Italy and the Serie A club continues to monitor his situation. Therefore, it seems likely that Forest will face competition if they decide to pursue a formal offer.<\/p>\n<p>From Pereira&#8217;s perspective, the appeal is clear.<\/p>\n<p>Teate is capable of functioning as a central defender, but can also play at left-back if needed. That versatility gives Forest further tactical flexibility, which could often prove useful throughout the long Premier League season.<\/p>\n<p>At 26 years old, he is also approaching what many would consider the peak of his career. His experience at international level with Belgium and in European competitions will bring further quality to Forest&#8217;s defensive unit.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen whether this interest will turn into concrete negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>Anderson is attracting significant interest from City and looks set to be another busy summer for Forest as several next targets are being considered.<\/p>\n<div class=\"display-card  article article-card small  no-badge  active-content                              \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"nottingham-forest-transfers-jan-ziolkowski-update\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<p>                        <img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"440\" height=\"248\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Nottingham Forest players during the minute's applause\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/ottingham-forest-players-during-a-minute-s-applause.JPG?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/ottingham-forest-players-during-a-minute-s-applause.JPG?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\"><label>related<\/label><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nottingham_Forest_aim_to_reach_%E2%80%98final_agreement_for_signature_in_coming_days\"><\/span>\n<p>\t\t\tNottingham Forest aim to reach &#8216;final agreement&#8217; for signature in coming days<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Tricky Trees needs to fill a small gap in valuation.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nottingham Forest&#8217;s summer transfer window is starting to take shape, with manager Vitor Pereira looking to strengthen his squad after a campaign that saw the club barely retain their Premier League status.
