Oliveira transfer listed

Nelson Oliveira has been told he can leave Benfica, and with that news I'd love to see him back at Forest, alongside Britt. If we can sign him for a small fee then that's got to be worth pursuing I think. What do you think?

Like sph said, if the price is right give it a go

9 league goals in 24 appearances for us. And image if Britt was along side him to feed of the numerous shots that he was not able to convert. I think he seemed happy here and the crowd liked him - could be a good move for all concerned.

Agreed sph, I liked him from the first game he played for us.It took him a while to settle in, but once he had settled, I thought he was great.

Britt and Aloe Vera, I think it could be a lethal partnership in this league...

I'd like to see that El B, and even Mendes would benefit from having Britt up front, not that we're likely to sign him either. He'd wouldn't be in two minds all the time, he'd have one job, get the ball to Britt!

I've heard they want £3m for him. Don't think Forest can afford that much, really.

Can't see anyone paying that much for him, certainly not us.

Does anyone know if he is out of contract or has he just been told he is surplus to requirements? Obviously that would make a difference to the cost. I think if he had the right players around him he could do really well for us. But they way the club is at the moment I struggle to find any excitement or optimism.

It seems he still has two years left on his Benfica contract. £3.5m is too high - but there could be a deal to be done - especially if Nelson really wants a move back.

It would need him to be interested in coming back here and also Benfica deciding whether they want a quick sale or not. I would imagine there would be some interest from Portuguese clubs as he has played for Portugal so will be well known.

I would bring him in. Whether you liked him or not he was the only reason we were relatively safe last season as no one else could score.

Could work well with Brit as well.
