Nottingham Forest submit €6m bid for La Liga star Pablo Maffeo
Nottingham Forest are chasing a transfer for Mallorca star Pablo Maffeo. According to El Chiringuito, the Tricky Trees have submitted a €6 million bid for the 27-year-old, who has already agreed personal terms with them. Advertisement Now it remains to be seen if the bid is enough to tempt Mallorca into a sale. Maffeo was part of Manchester City's academy and went on to make three appearances for the senior team. Following stints at Girona, VfB Stuttgart and Huesca, the Spaniard joined Mallorca in the summer of 2021, initially on loan that was later made permanent. Maffeo has been a consistent performer for Los Piratas over the years, making 128 appearances across all competitions and scoring four goals. Last season, he featured in 30 La Liga matches, averaging 2.0 tackles, 3.6 ball recoveries and 2.8 clearances per game. Pablo has two years left on his contract at Mallorca, but he is now ready to take a fresh challenge in the Premier League. Advertisement Transfer activity has been relatively quiet at Forest, with the club yet to add a new player in the summer transfer window. But the situation will likely change in the coming weeks, as they look determined to seal a move for Pablo. Nuno Espirito Santo's side have also been linked with Juventus duo Timothy Weah and Samuel Mbangula, but it remains to be seen whether they can land the services of the two highly-rated players.

Nottingham Forest chase bargain La Liga defensive star
Premier League side Nottingham Forest could launch a summer transfer raid on La Liga to secure one of Mallorca's key stars. Forest secured a European qualification spot on the final day of the 2024/25 season as Nuno Espirito Santo's side slotted into the UEFA Conference League. Advertisement The extra games and demand placed on the schedule means Santo is looking for reinforcements to his squad. With Brazilian midfielder Danilo potentially moving on – amid interest from Lyon and Real Betis – the former Valencia boss is looking at the Spanish top-flight for options. As per the latest update from El Chiringuito, Mallorca defender Pablo Maffeo is on his radar. Pablo Maffeo Mallorca contract, transfer latest Maffeo has been a regular for Mallorca since his 2022 transfer move from VfB Stuttgart and he is under contract in Palma until 2027. However, the financial lure of the Premier League is a strong factor for the 27-year-old, with no progress on a renewal at this stage. The report claims Forest are ready to table a €6m offer for Maffeo to cover both full back positions in behind Neco Williams and Ola Aina next season. Advertisement Forest have reportedly already agreed personal terms with Maffeo and his agent with the final barrier to a deal focused on Mallorca accepting their bid. €6m is slightly above what Mallorca value him at currently, but his value to the squad remains a clear factor in deciding whether or not to offload him to the City Ground this summer. Pablo Maffeo to Mallorca: Key stats on La Liga star Maffeo has developed a reputation as a tough tackling defender in La Liga and he is consistent in his role and rarely injured. Across the last four seasons at Mallorca, he has appeared in 30 or more of Mallorca's 38 league games on three occasions, as a key part of their backline.
