The Paraguay international has been the focus of a lot of conjecture in the past few weeks, and the Reds are reportedly one of the teams considering his rumored $20 million (£15.5 million) release clause. Head coach Nuno Espirito Santo prioritizes strengthening out wide, and it was rumored that Forest had discussions with the Argentine club Talleres over the prospect of signing Sosa.
They also take note of a social media post made by Sosa and hypothesize that it “may be relevant” to the current situation surrounding his future. On Saturday, the athlete posted an emoticon on his Instagram stories that featured a dejected face on a simple background.
Contrary to claims, the Reds made a set offer of 12.3 million euros (£10.4 million) for Sosa. In addition, there would be 2.3 million euros (£1.9 million) in add-ons contingent on the achievement of specific goals.
According to Argentine media site Via Pais, LA Galaxy, an MLS team, may reenter the competition for the winger. Earlier this year, they allegedly had a $15 million (£11.6 million) offer turned down.
Argentine teams Boca Juniors and River Plate reportedly considered signing Sosa, but decided against it due to the player’s release clause. In addition to Chelsea, Wolverhampton Wanderers, and Leicester City, other Premier League teams were also rumored to have shown interest in the player. Everton and Newcastle United were reported to have scouted him.
Talleres CEO Andres Fassi said in May that Sosa will probably go this summer. “We have committed to releasing Ramon in this market,” he stated.
