Orel Mangala DM played for forest. Bobble and others saying we’re trying to get him on loan for a season.
Also Sofyan Amrabat
I believe he means we tried for Amrabat but ended up going for Mangala. Doubt we will be getting both.
If this guy comes in I believe we have one more domestic loan slot. Likely to be Trippier if reports are true and then I reckon that's your lot unless someone comes in for Dom late in the window.

Just had a browse of a Forest forum and they speak quite highly of him. Can beat the press and is a tidy player, maybe not the most dynamic but comfortable on the ball.
Some talk around concentration issues initially there but he seemed to improve in this area.
They didn't sell him because he was crap, just they could get a decent fee for him and he was a bit of a sacrificial lamb for bringing in funds.
Sounds like he'd be pretty good next to Gana who can do the legging it around the pitch part of the game.
