Nottingham Forest has secured the signing of towering goalkeeper Carlos Miguel from Brazilian club Corinthians. The 25-year-old, standing at an impressive 6ft 8in, has inked a four-year deal with the Premier League side. Carlos Miguel, who started his career with Internacional, moved to Corinthians in 2021 after loan spells with Santa Cruz and Boa Esporte. Making 14 appearances in the 2024 season, Carlos Miguel has now transitioned to the English league, aiming to make a significant impact at Forest.

Expressing his delight, Carlos Miguel stated, "I'm really happy and honoured to represent this club." His aim is to secure a pivotal role in Forest, a club rich in football history, cementing his place in their legacy. The towering goalkeeper emphasized his dedication to the team and the sport. Carlos Miguel follows in the footsteps of his former teammate, Murillo, who joined Forest from Corinthians last summer.

Corinthians acknowledged Forest's activation of a termination clause in Carlos Miguel's contract, allowing for his move to the English club. This transfer has sparked varied reactions on social media, with users humorously focusing on Carlos Miguel's stature and Brazilian origins rather than his prowess between the sticks. Fans shared lighthearted comments and anecdotes surrounding the goalkeeper's acquisition by Nottingham Forest.

The arrival of Carlos Miguel at Nottingham Forest adds a new dimension to the squad, with fans eager to witness his performance on the Premier League stage. As the club continues to strengthen its ranks, supporters are optimistic about the contributions the Brazilian shot-stopper can make during his tenure at the City Ground.
