Nottingham Forest are in talks over the €15m (£12.8m) signing of the Celta Vigo right-back Javi Rueda, which would probably be their final incoming of the window after Liam Delap from Chelsea.

Oliver Glasner has been seeking someone who can play right wing-back and the 24-year-old former Real Madrid academy player fits the desired profile.

The former Spain youth international joined Celta three years ago from Madrid, who will receive half the fee. He made his first-team breakthrough last season, playing 26 La Liga games and 11 in the Europa League, helping his side to reach the quarter-finals.

Forest confirmed on Wednesday that the wing-back Eric da Silva Moreira will spend the season on loan to the Dutch side Excelsior to aid his development.

Chelsea have agreed to sell Delap to Forest in a deal worth £50m and have loaned Axel Disasi to Crystal Palace for the season. Disasi has also been borrowed by Aston Villa and West Ham since he signed for Chelsea from Monaco.

The defender said: “I know that it’s very tough to play against Palace at Selhurst Park – so I’m looking forward to being on the other side now.”

Brentford have struck an agreement with West Ham to sign El Hadji Malick Diouf for £35m plus up to £5m in add-ons. The left-back has been keen to leave West Ham since their relegation.
