In England, the Daily Mail claims that Nottingham Forest’s 21-year-old Brazilian defender, Murillo Santiago, would aim to leave the club next summer and would already have several interested parties in his services.
The reason? The recent FPF sanction against Forest, which cost them a points deduction and could force the red team to sell some of their stars. For all this, the Brazilian Murillo would aim to be one of those sacrificed.

Nottingham Forest could be forced to sell Murillo in the summer
Recently, Nottingham Forest received a four-point deduction for violations of Financial Fair Play (FPF) and everything indicates that in the summer they will have to sell players to balance their accounts.
The Daily Mail states that Forest would not rule out selling Murillo in the summer, since the club knows that the Brazilian generates a lot of interest in the European market due to his great presence.

The aforementioned source assures that teams of the stature of Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle are following him, but also two teams from outside England: FC Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.
Murillo arrived at Nottingham Forest from Corinthians in the summer of 2023 for a fee close to 12.00 million euros and this season he has already played 27 games in all competitions.
Currently, the specialized media Transfermarkt assigns him a market value of 25.00 million euros.
Considering the financial urgency that is pressing on Nottingham Forest, it is not ruled out that the Brazilian could leave the club for a figure very similar to that.
