RIO DE JANEIRO, Nov. 11 (Xinhua) -- Flamengo and Vasco da Gama are preparing bids to sign Nottingham Forest goalkeeper John Victor, according to Brazilian media reports.

The 30-year-old has struggled for opportunities at the Premier League club this season and is seeking a return to his homeland during the upcoming winter transfer window, newspaper O Globo reported.

It added that both suitors could be willing to pay up to seven million euros to secure his signature.

John has made just 12 appearances for Forest since joining the club from Botafogo in August last year.

He played a key role in Botafogo's 2024 Brazilian Serie A and Copa Libertadores triumphs, prompting interest from clubs in Europe and Asia. ■
