Hull City boss Liam Rosenior has provided an update on the future of reported Nottingham Forest transfer target Jacob Greaves.
The defender has been linked with a big money move to the City Ground this summer as Forest look to strengthen their squad for what they hope will be a second successive season in the Premier League. Aston Villa have also been credited with an interest.
But a potential stumbling block to any transfer could be that Greaves signed a long-term deal with the Tigers until 2026 just a few months ago. However, the Hull City head coach has admitted that a decision on the defender's future will be made in the best interests of his club.

As reported by Hull Live, Rosenior said: "It's wonderful that a player who has come through our academy has been spoken about in this way. I love it when my players are being linked with clubs higher up because it means they're doing a good job and it means the team is doing a good job.
"Jacob's an outstanding player. Would I rather have him here from a footballing point of view? One hundred percent, because he's got so much potential and so much to learn.
"Every single club has to make a decision based on their best interests. Sometimes that's keeping a player and sometimes that's selling a player and I'm sure we'll make that decision whenever that comes up."
