Sainz, 24, enjoyed a promising campaign with Norwich and has emerged as a top target for Forest, who are looking to strengthen their attacking options ahead of the 2025/26 season. Currently valued at €14 million by Transfermarkt, the left winger has also attracted attention from European clubs including Olympiacos and FC Porto, underlining his rising stock.
The Spaniard is part of a shortlist of left-wingers being considered by Forest, alongside high-profile names such as Jack Grealish, Luís Henrique, and Arnaut Danjuma. If signed, Sainz would compete for a place alongside current wide men Callum Hudson-Odoi and Ramón Sosa.
Forest have been active in the market this summer, with recent links to players like Rayan Cherki, Joel Ordóñez, and Dušan Vlahović.
The pursuit of Borja Sainz marks another bold move as they aim to reshape their squad and climb the Premier League table in the upcoming season.
