Arsenal flop Nuno Tavares lined up for Premier League switch as rival club submits formal proposal for permanent deal
ARSENAL flop Nuno Tavares is being lined up for a Premier League switch.
The full-back has been strongly linked with a move away from the Gunners this summer.
Forest are looking to sign Tavares on a permanent deal, with negotiations over personal terms with the player ongoing.
Tavares is also reportedly a target for a pair of Bundesliga clubs.
Both Wolsburg and Werder Bremen have been said to be interested in recent weeks.

Meanwhile, Galatasaray were also eyeing a move for the Portuguese left-back earlier this summer.
Tavares has made 28 appearances for Arsenal since signing from Benfica in 2021.
He spent last season on loan in France with Marseille, scoring six times in 31 league matches as he helped the club finish third in Ligue 1.
However, he has not appeared to be part of Mikel Arteta's plans since returning to the Emirates Stadium.

Tavares was left out of the squad for the club's pre-season tour of the USA.
He was also not named on the bench for Saturday's season opener at home to Forest.
If his move to the City Ground is completed, Tavares will become the club's fourth summer signing.
He will not be the first player to arrive from Arsenal, though, with Matt Turner already completing the switch.
