Nottingham Forest attempted £25m transfer for World Cup hero Goncalo Ramos

Nottingham Forest reportedly missed out on a chance to sign Portugal’s World Cup sensation Goncalo Ramos.

The striker was handed a surprise start by boss Fernando Santos against Switzerland as Cristiano Ronaldo was named on the bench. It was the first time that Ramos had been named in the starting line-up and he responded by scoring an impressive hat-trick and firing his country to the World Cup quarter-finals, setting up a tie with Morocco.

Ramos, 21, established himself in the Benfica team during the 2021-22 campaign but has ascended to another level this term. The striker had managed 20 combined goal contributions in 21 games for his club, earning a place in the Portugal squad, but reportedly could have joined Forest in the summer.
