Forest midfielder Scarpa hoping for fresh Olympiakos chance with Carvalhal

Olympiacos loan signing Gustavo Scarpa is looking forward to a fresh start with a new manager.

Scarpa is on loan at the Greek club from Nottingham Forest, but has struggled.

He has only managed seven league games and has not been able to resurrect his career in the way he had hoped.

Journalist Jorge Nicola revealed that Scarpa believes the arrival of former Swansea City boss Carlos Carvalhal will help.

There is interest in his signature from Brazil, with Internacional president Alessandro Barcellos telling UOL: “He's a player we're in a position to bring in, but it doesn't just depend on Internacional.

"The market is moving and we usually only put names out there as long as they have a real chance of being here.

“He's a great player, who is certainly being sought after by several clubs in Brazil and even abroad. But in order for things to work out, this or any other negotiation to go ahead, we need to be careful so that we can be successful."
