Botafogo striker Matheus Nascimento stalling Forest move

Botafogo striker Matheus Nascimento is set to stall joining Nottingham Forest.

Forest are chasing the 19 year-old attacker before the summer market closes at the end of the month.

They've offered £15m for Nascimento, but he wants to stay with Brasileiro Serie A leaders Botafogo and help them win the title.

As such, any deal is likely to wait until January, says The Sun.

Nascimento is a Brazil U20 international.
