Ousmane Diomandé, a 22-year-old center-back for Sporting Club, is very close to becoming a new player for Nottingham Forest. The English club has already made an offer and is confident in closing the deal in the coming days for a package close to 40 million euros between fixed and variables, a figure far from the 80 million euros buyout clause of the international player from Ivory Coast.

Negotiations between both clubs have progressed significantly, with the final details of the transfer focusing on the structure of bonuses. If there are no unexpected turns, the defender will leave the Portuguese league this transfer window to join the Premier League side's project.

Nottingham Forest Accelerates for Ousmane Diomandé

Nottingham Forest considers Ousmane Diomandé a priority to strengthen their defense. The English club has submitted a proposal totaling around 40 million euros, including incentives, and expects to receive a definitive response from Sporting Club shortly.

The difference between the offer and the buyout clause, set at 80 million euros, has not hindered the progress of negotiations. Both parties are discussing the allocation of variables to bridge the gap and facilitate the completion of the operation.

Diomandé joined Sporting Club in 2023 and has since played in over a hundred official matches with the Lisbon-based team. His performance has also led to him becoming a full international for Ivory Coast, increasing his market value.

Sporting Club Already Planning Ousmane Diomandé's Successor

While negotiations with Nottingham Forest progress, Sporting Club is already working on planning their defense for the upcoming season. The chosen one to cover for a potential departure of Ousmane Diomandé is Ibrahima Ba, a center-back coming from Famalicão.

The addition of Ba responds to the forecast that the transfer of the Ivory Coast international will materialize. The Portuguese club had been evaluating alternatives for several days and expedited the arrival of the defender before officially finalizing Diomandé's sale.

Ivory Coast Boosts the Central's Market Value

The progress of Ousmane Diomandé with Ivory Coast has also increased interest from Premier League clubs. At 22 years old, the center-back combines experience in European competitions with room for growth, a profile that fits in with Nottingham Forest's sports policy.

The next step will be finalizing the last financial details between Sporting Club and Nottingham Forest. If both entities reach a definitive agreement on the variables of the transaction, Ousmane Diomandé will head to England in a transfer valued at around 40 million euros, while the Portuguese champions will immediately activate Ibrahima Ba as his replacement.
