Nottingham Forest are trying desperately to get new players to the club before the Premier League season gets underway later this month.
Dan Ndoye was added to the Forest ranks last week to replace Anthony Elanga, who joined Newcastle last month in a deal worth £60 million.
The Reds need to make sure the squad is well stocked with a number of players leaving this summer, with Danilo, Ramon Sosa and Andrew Omobamidele all exiting.
Forest have been linked with Douglas Luiz for the duration of the summer window and now some more information has come to light on the potential deal.

What Nottingham Forest have proposed to Douglas Luiz
Right now, there are a number of different stories doing the rounds on Luiz, with it proving pretty hard to keep on top of everything.
It was claimed over the weekend that Luiz has flown to England to discuss a move back to the Premier League, with Forest in the box seat for his signature.
Now, TuttoSport have claimed that Luiz has agreed a deal with Forest on a contract worth around £50,000-a-week until 2030.
Clearly, the player has given his approval to the transfer, with Luiz quite keen to help Forest during their European campaign this season.

Everton, West Ham and Manchester United have been linked with Luiz and this one feels like one that the Reds might have to get on with pretty quickly.
Luiz would be an excellent addition for Nuno Espirito Santo
Jermaine Pennant thinks Luiz is better than Declan Rice, and although that might be a stretch, Edu will be working hard to sort this one out.
Edu has tried to sign Luiz twice when he was at Arsenal, and the Sporting Director won’t want to miss out on the Brazilian midfielder for a third time.
Luiz can operate as a number six or a number eight and having him as part of the squad would help Espirito Santo’s team become more possession-based.
Luiz played 204 times for Villa during his time in the West Midlands and that level of experience at 27-years-old is certainly not to be sniffed at.
