Linked by a popular Argentinian journalist, who is followed by the likes of Fabrizio


Nottingham Forest is the club that wants to buy Ramón Sosa, a player from Talleres and the Paraguay National Team. There are already negotiations between the parties to discuss amounts and percentages of the possible transfer.

So maybe I am ignorant but Talleres is an Argentinian club, which I didn't know which is why the journalist is reporting on it.

He is a pacey left winger with some decent stats, and there is a good report about him at


Played at the Copa, where Paraguay lost all 3 matches but he scored in the loss to Costa Rica, and assisted in another match.

Seems his agent has been putting his name out there, and been linked with Chelsea (who were not interested) and Leicester

Oh can't miss the obligatory YouTube video



Fast and direct, likes to go beyond the full back sometimes and sometimes cut in, to keep the defender guessing , and he seems adept with both feet

Buy him!

Forest are magic on and off the pitch!

CHO, Sosa - competing for LW, Just need Elanga to have competition too. Then the balance in the wide positions are sorted.

A left footer, PLEASE. We have four players who can play on the wing by my reckoning, the two starters plus Anderson and Moreira, and they're all right-footed. As is this guy.

Lively looking player - fee wise you'd imagine it would be north of 10m as they turned down 12m USD for him in Jan.

First off, he looks pretty decent but it did also look like everything was in slow motion.

Shite music too, as standard.

This one feels a little underwhelming, especially if it’s 15m.

He’s 25 next month, highlights look pretty meh, doesn’t have a great scoring record or anything.

Hopefully I’m wrong but just doesn’t feel like an impactful signing at all.

Highlights videos have to be taken with a pinch of salt (see Abdoun), but I have to disagree there mate. The ball flies off his boot on some of those goals - his technique looks good. A lot of the highlights seems to be whilst running at the defence and countering too, which would suit us.

Not sure how true it is but apparently he has changed agents recently to a certain Jorge Mendes
That would explain it - Nuno doing his mate a favour by 'chasing' one of his targets with concrete interest from another club.

Not to say this guy doesn't look a talent, I'm just not sure he's our profile.

There’s nothing there too exciting for me. He’s clearly pretty quick but there’s nothing else leaping out at me given that the standard of defending on show looks conference level at best and at just about 25 he’s probably approaching his peak already.

Couple of swings from distance which look great on the highlights but given his not outstanding goal output you have to question how many other of those shots have ended up in row Z.

As I say, hopefully I’m wrong if he does come, but just nothing to get me particularly excited and I’d be a little disappointed if that’s the best attacking player we bring in this window

He might be a late bloomer - 6 goals and 5 assists in 16 games since the turn of the year.

Maybe Nuno has a preference for undersized wingers too, thinking about signings like Neto and Podence. It might be a specific type of player they're after for whatever reason.

I tend to agree, I'd prefer a younger, cheaper prospect like the two Brazilians we're looking at.
In fairness both would suit me, given the ages of the Brazilian kids.

I'm guessing if there is genuine interest this guy is seen as another impactful option from wide - he's seen as a match winner type at he current level according to the linked report.
