As per the report from Sport Witness and published in Sunday’s print edition of Corriere dello Sport, Nottingham Forest has placed a bid for Nikola Milenkovic, leapfrogging Tottenham in the process.
This summer, Nikola Milenkovic is a sought-after target.
For Fiorentina, Milenkovic has proven to be an incredibly dependable and steady player over the years. Despite being linked to major moves in nearly every transfer window, nothing has happened as of yet.
This summer, however, could see a change as TBR Football revealed last month that Spurs and other Premier League teams were interested in signing the adaptable defender.
Nottingham Forest currently seems to have gone to the front of the line.
When it comes to Milenkovic, Forest moves first.
Corriere dello Sport has now confirmed this information, stating that Tottenham, Forest, Aston Villa, and Fulham are all eager to sign Milenkovic.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s team is thought to have initiated contact, as they have reportedly made a “significant offer” for the Serbian international.
According to the article, La Viola is willing to consider the offer since they want to reduce their payroll, as the 26-year-old is now their highest paid employee.

Milenkovic is a versatile player who can play both right and center back, making him a potentially valuable addition to Ange Postecoglou’s side.
Nevertheless, there isn’t any hard proof that Tottenham has expressed a genuine interest in the Fiorentina player this summer.
