"Nottingham Forest have tried to sign former Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea in the winter transfer window, according to The Athletic.
The Nottingham bosses offered the 33-year-old a short-term deal, which could be beneficial for both parties. The team could acquire an experienced player with a long track record in the Premier League, and the Spanish goalkeeper could re-establish himself by securing a promising transfer in the summer. In the end, De Gea rejected the offer, forcing the Foresters to sign goalkeeper Matz Sels.
