Nottingham Forest<\/a> owner Evangelos Marinakis<\/a> has set the price tag for what would be a record-breaking Forest sale as Bayern Munich<\/a> circle, according to a new report.<\/p>\n

\n <\/h2>\n

Forest have a Europa League play-off tie to negotiate tonight when Fenerbah\u00e7e arrive at the City Ground.<\/p>\n

It is a fixture that, not so long ago, would have seemed impossible to imagine \u2014 Forest back in European football, hosting a heavyweight Turkish side in front of a packed and expectant home crowd.<\/p>\n

They arrive at this tie in confident mood after their 3-0 away win last week \u2014 Murillo<\/a>, Igor Jesus and Morgan Gibbs-White all on the scoresheet \u2014 gave them a commanding first-leg advantage.<\/p>\n

Barring a catastrophic collapse, Forest are heading into the last 16.<\/p>\n

The Tricky Trees face a battle to keep them.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

The Premier League<\/a> table still makes for uncomfortable reading, with the Tricky Trees just two points above the drop zone, but this European adventure has given the City Ground a lift that money cannot buy.<\/p>\n

Nights like tonight remind supporters exactly what this club is capable of when things click.<\/p>\n

At the heart of it all, week after week, has been one man who has caught the attention of some of the biggest clubs on the continent.<\/p>\n

Indeed, Murillo has been exceptional this season yet again in testing circumstances.<\/p>\n

\n

The 23-year-old Brazilian centre-back has brought composure, authority and left-footed elegance to the Forest backline in a way that has turned heads far beyond the East Midlands.<\/p>\n

His ability to carry the ball out of defence, play forward under pressure and read the game with a maturity well beyond his years has made him one of the most sought-after defenders in European football.<\/p>\n

Chelsea, Liverpool and a host of top Premier League sides have been eyeing up Murillo<\/a> for a long time, but Bayern are also extremely keen.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n Bayern Munich plan ‘major move’ for Nottingham Forest star Murillo<\/strong>
\n <\/h2>\n

According to TEAMtalk, a sale this summer is now considered increasingly likely if the right offer arrives \u2014 and the interest is as serious as it gets.<\/p>\n

Chelsea have done the most groundwork, scouting Murillo extensively over the past 12 months and reportedly coming close to making a move last summer.<\/p>\n

\n
\n \"Nottingham\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Liverpool are equally serious. The Reds have their own defensive questions to answer this summer, with Ibrahima Konate’s future uncertain and doubts growing over the long-term picture at the back. Murillo has been identified as a player who could address exactly those concerns.<\/p>\n

Man United, Arsenal and Tottenham have also registered interest, and Real Madrid and Barcelona both have him on their radar too.<\/p>\n

However, the most intriguing development is the emergence of Vincent Kompany’s Bundesliga champions as serious contenders.<\/p>\n

TT suggest Bayern are ready to make a ‘major move’ for Murillo this summer<\/a> and believe they have a genuine chance of beating Premier League clubs to his signature, with the Bavarians holding a huge interest.<\/p>\n

Forest have tied him down until 2029 and their valuation sits between \u00a360 million and \u00a370 million, with Marinakis poised to demand a fee that would eclipse their club-record sale<\/a> of Anthony Elanga to Newcastle.<\/p>\n

They will not let him go cheaply, but with this level of competition circling, holding on may prove harder than anyone at the City Ground dares admit.<\/p>\n
