Chelsea is keen on signing Murillo, but Nottingham Forest is unwilling to sell the defender in January. The Blues are reportedly aware of Forest’s firm position to retain their key player during the ongoing season.
Journalist Pete O’Rourke suggests a summer move is more likely, potentially for £70-80 million, should Murillo seek a higher level of competition like the Champions League. Barcelona is also keeping tabs on the Brazilian ahead of the next transfer window.
