The British Daily Mail exclusively reported that after completing McCarthy's transfer, Nottingham Forest is accelerating the Rico Lewis' deal.
The Post pointed out that Forest originally wanted to sign McCarthy and Lewis from Manchester City at one time. McCarty's transfer has been fully agreed, with a total price of £30 million. But it seems that Lewis' transfer is likely to become a separate deal.
Last season, Lewis made 44 appearances in various competitions under Guardiola. Lewis was only 6 games away from his career milestone for Manchester City, but at the right back position, his appearance order was lagging behind Nunes.
Manchester City originally wanted to renew Lewis' contract and listed it as a priority this summer, but it has not been negotiated so far.
It is reported that if there is a suitable offer, Manchester City is willing to let Lewis leave the team, and they also have the same attitude towards Savignho and Ederson. In McCarty's deal, Manchester City added the second transfer share and buyback terms. McCarty only started the Premier League three times last season, and then led England U21 to win the European Youth Championship. If Lewis transfers, Manchester City will also add similar share and buyback terms. Previously, Palmer's success at Chelsea allowed Manchester City to use these terms more frequently.
