Ramon Sosa has spoken for the first time about his transfer from Nottingham Forest to Palmeiras.
The Paraguayan winger has signed a five-year deal with Palmeiras, after leaving the Reds after only one season at the City Ground.
And he said: “I already knew the greatness of Palmeiras.
“I'm very happy to be here, to wear this jersey for the first time. I think this jersey fits me very well.
"The structure surprised me; it's incredible. I did some reconnaissance, saw many things you don't find at most clubs, and here we have them.
“This shows that this is a club prepared for anything, always growing.”
Forest confirmed his departure in a statement which read: “Nottingham Forest can confirm Ramón Sosa has left the Club, joining Brazilian side Palmeiras on a permanent deal.
“The Paraguayan joined Forest in August 2024 from Argentinian side CA Talleres, scoring three goals for the Reds across the season.
“The winger netted his first Premier League goal in the draw against Brighton & Hove Albion in September, grabbing the equaliser in front of the away end after a quick counterattack.
“Sosa scored twice and got one assist in the team’s impressive FA Cup run, making 23 appearances in all competitions while on Trentside.
“The 25-year-old, who has notched up 22 appearances for his national team, now heads to Palmeiras, the four-time Copa Libertadores winners, who currently sit fourth in Série A.
“Everyone at Nottingham Forest would like to thank Ramón for his contribution last season, wishing him the very best for his next challenge.”
