Nottingham Forest consider swap deal for Sevilla star as La Liga side target centre-back David Carmo

According to AS, the  clubs are in talks over a potential swap deal with Sevilla valueing Carmona at €12 million while Forest have a €10m asking price on  Carmo. 

Carmona rose through the ranks in Sevilla's academy before being sent out on loan to El Che and Getafe before being a starting left back at Sevilla last season. He appeared 36 times for Sevilla last season as they finished 17th last season. Carmona comes as a target for Forest after their failed pursuit of Manchester City defender Rico Lewis as he decided to extend his contract with City.

Carmo, signed from Porto, spent the 2024-25 season on loan at Olympiakos. Sevilla coach Matias Almeyda knows him well from his time managing rivals AEK Athens, while sporting director Monchi sees Carmo as the ideal replacement for Loic Bade, who is close to joining Bayer Leverkusen.

Forest will hope to complete the signing of Carmona after missing out on Lewis while Sevilla will hope to complete the signing of Carmo to replace Bade.
