Fans React to West Ham’s Pursuit of Williams
Nottingham Forest supporters have made it clear that it would take a considerable offer for them to entertain the idea of right-back Neco Williams leaving the club. This comes in the wake of reports that West Ham United have approached Forest with a cash-plus-player proposal to acquire the Welsh defender, an offer that Forest has reportedly turned down without a second thought.
Forest in Control of Williams’ Future
With two years remaining on his contract at the City Ground, Nottingham Forest are in a strong position when it comes to negotiations over Williams’ future. The club’s resolve to retain him is mirrored by the fans, who have suggested inflated transfer fees to dissuade West Ham’s interest.
Williams’ Impact at Nottingham Forest
Since his £17 million move from Liverpool in 2022, Williams has become a fixture in the Forest lineup, contributing to the team with 68 appearances. His role under managers Steve Cooper and Nuno Espirito Santo has been significant, and fans view him as an integral part of the squad moving forward.
Supporters Dismiss West Ham’s Offer
The initial reaction to West Ham’s offer has been one of disbelief among the Nottingham Forest fanbase, with many branding the bid as “insulting” and expressing their desire to see Williams remain at the club. Some fans have speculated that the bid is laughably low, while others have suggested that it might be a tactic by Williams’ new agents to secure him a better contract with Forest.
Fan-Fueled Valuations Skyrocket
While some fans are adamant that Williams is not for sale, others have humorously set their own price tags, ranging from £20 million to a whopping £40 million. The tongue-in-cheek suggestions even included a swap deal involving West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen, reflecting the high regard in which Williams is held by the Forest faithful.
Transfer Rumours Continue to Swirl
As discussions around Williams’ future intensify, other transfer news emerges, with Jhon Duran reportedly nearing a move to West Ham after recent negotiations. This potential signing could signal West Ham’s intent to strengthen their squad further in the upcoming transfer window.
