Could Matt Turner's time at Nottingham Forest be over after just one season?

That appears to be increasingly likely, with reports stating the U.S. men's national team goalkeeper is set to be offloaded as the club nears yet another new goalkeeper signing.

Both Fabrizio Romano and The Athletic have reported that Forest is closing in on a deal for Corinthians goalkeeper Carlos Miguel, with the Premier League side having made a bid equalling his €4 million release clause.

As the 25-year-old Brazilian nears an arrival, The Athletic said Forest is willing to listen to offers for Turner and fellow goalkeeper Odysseas Vlachodimos.

Alan Nixon from The Sun added that Forest is willing to sell Turner before the season starts, with multiple clubs in Europe interested in the 29-year-old.

If Turner moves on, it would represent a third club in three seasons after he left Arsenal last summer after spending just one season in north London.

Turner joined Forest in a £10 million offseason move and after a promising start, the American's time at the City Ground was blighted by a series of high-profile errors.

The shot-stopper was benched not once, but twice, with the second time seeing him lose his spot for good as Forest signed Matz Sels from Strasbourg in February.

After he was benched a second time, Turner admitted that he may ultimately have to "move backwards" if things didn't work out for him at Forest.

Despite a tough club season, Turner is still set to be the USMNT's starter at the Copa América, which will begin on Sunday with a match against Bolivia.
