Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo has encouraged the club to sign new full backs to cover Ola Aina and Neco Williams all summer.
Now, according to Transfer Guru Fabrizio Romano, they have closed a deal with Juventus, so sign Savona, 22.
Romano adds that the reimbursement is expected to amount to more than € 15 million, with the two clubs exchanging paperwork before medical.
The Italian, who is a versatile defender who can play anywhere on the backline, appeared 40 performances in all matches last season.
