Talks are taking place over Nottingham Forest defender Richie Laryea extending his stay with Toronto FC.
The Canada international’s loan with his former club ended on Friday, meaning he is technically back under the Reds’ wing once again. But the MLS side are eager to keep him, and “active discussions” are being held.
Laryea is unlikely to be part of Forest head coach Steve Cooper’s plans for the upcoming season, with Serge Aurier and Neco Williams already competing for the right-back spot. Toronto are mindful of working within their salary cap, however, and are seemingly prepared to move on if a deal cannot be sorted quickly.
