According to reports, Forest will activate Cunha’s £62 million release clause. The Brazilian forward has scored 13 goals and provided four assists this season, making him one of the Premier League’s most in-demand attackers.

Under Nuno Espírito Santo, Forest sit third in the table and aim to qualify for the Champions League for the first time. That success has emboldened the club to pursue elite talent like Cunha.

If signed, Cunha would surpass Forest’s current record transfer of £35 million for Elliott Anderson.

Arsenal and Chelsea Monitor Cunha’s Situation

Arsenal considered Cunha in January after Gabriel Jesus suffered a season-ending injury. However, concerns over Cunha’s disciplinary record—including a headbutt incident and £50,000 fine—may have cooled their interest.

Chelsea also remain interested, but Forest currently lead the race.

Forest view Cunha as a statement signing. His arrival would elevate their attacking options and reinforce their European ambitions. With Champions League football on the horizon, Forest now offer a compelling destination for top-tier talent.
