Nottingham Forest needs a midfield addition in January. Ryan Yates is injured, while Cheikhou Kouyate returns from the World Cup with a hamstring problem.
They signed Danilo for £16m and it looks like Arsenal know all about the Brazilian star. Daily Mail today confirmed The Gunners have pulled out of the deal for the 22-year-old on two previous occasions.

Arsenal pursued Danilo twice but failed.
Danil will now be hoping for a more successful next season than the current one. He will certainly play a pivotal role at Forest in the years to come. Notably, the Samba player has pocketed three goals in the new shirt, with two of them being wins against Brighton and Southampton.
Witnessing Danilo’s performance, the public can understand why Arsenal once pursued this midfielder. Once the 2023 summer market opens, the London team continues to hunt for midfielders with the top goals being Declan Rice or Moises Caceido.
Elsewhere, Arsenal is about to lose Granit Xhaka. Xhaka’s departure is likely to be confirmed in the next few days.
