According to David Ornstein of The Athletic, who has asserted Forest’s attitude on Murillo.

So, what is known about Nottingham Forest and Murillo? Let us investigate.
Nottingham Forest, according to The Athletic columnist David Ornstein, might sell Murillo in the summer of 2024.

According to the article, Forest, who just recruited Nuno as their new manager after replacing Steve Cooper, anticipate Murillo to be in high demand at the conclusion of the season.
Ornstein believes that if the Reds sell the 21-year-old central defender in the summer of 2024, they will expect a figure comparable to what they received for Brennan Johnson.
Tottenham signed Forest’s Wales international forward Johnson in the summer of 2023. Spurs paid a sum of £47.5 million for him (Sky Sports).

When asked whether there is any real interest in Murillo in January in a Q&A with The Athletic, Ornstein responded, “I haven’t heard of anything for January, Jack, but he is one who Forest expects to generate interest in the summer.”
“The Johnson sale has set an impressive price bar and so if players like Murillo or MGW are to go, the fee will need to be high.”
Murillo has been one of Nottingham Forest’s greatest performers so far this season, in my opinion.
In the summer of 2023, the 21-year-old joined Forest from Corinthians. He went to the City Ground late in the transfer window and did not participate in any pre-season games with the Reds.
So it’s extremely amazing how excellent he’s been for Forest and how fast he acclimated to the Premier League’s standards. Let us not forget that the Brazilian is only 21 years old.
