Nottingham Forest signed a number of players during the summer transfer window and Paraguay international Ramon Sosa was one of the 11 newbies added to the ranks.
The Reds targeted quality over quantity in large when it came to new recruits in the summer. However, there was still some wriggle room when it came to Forest adding a South American star.
Sosa signed for Forest from Argentine outfit Talleres and it was anticipated that he’d be a regular in the team. At 25-years-old, he hardly looked like one for the future and it’s been a frustrating time for the player.
The winger has barely played in the Premier League during the 2024/25 campaign. In fact he was an unused substitute as Forest destroyed Brighton 7-0 at the City Ground last season.
Sosa has been linked with a Forest exit. Now, some information has come to light that suggests where the player’s heart lies despite not currently playing much football at the club.

Ramon Sosa now decides Forest future after January transfer window
Versus claims that Forest received a very lucrative offer to sell Sosa during the January transfer window. However, the Reds stood firm, and asked the winger what his preference was and it turned out he wanted to stay on Trentside.
An unnamed club from Europe was actually keen to offer Sosa a bit of a lifeline during the mid-season transfer window. However, the Paraguay star has a contract until 2029 and it would seem he values that.
Vasco wanted to sign Sosa during the summer transfer window. At the time it felt as though the offer to land him wasn’t quite right but it would seem that he’s happy playing for Forest.
The player has scored for Forest during his maiden campaign in the Premier League. He scored the team’s equalising goal in a 2-2 draw against Brighton back in October and he has shown flashes of promise
However, his appearances have been restricted largely due to competition for places. Callum Hudson-Odoi and Anthony Elanga have largely occupied the wide berths with Jota Silva providing adequate backup.
It’s great that Sosa didn’t seek a move away from the club. He’s been pretty good when called upon and claimed a goal and as assist as Forest beat Luton in round three of the FA Cup back in January.
More minutes might be forthcoming against Exeter in the same competition on Tuesday night and it’s pretty useful that Forest chose not to get rid of the player dispute interest during the January window.
