Nottingham Forest have agreed a fee of around £2m with Stoke City for striker Sam Surridge as part of a late triple transfer plan on deadline day.
The Reds have been eager to bolster their options in attack after Lewis Grabban limped off in Sunday's defeat at Cardiff while Lyle Taylor is on loan at Birmingham City.
That left Keinan Davis, on loan from Aston Villa, as the only forward who is currently fit and available with the Reds now moving for Surridge on a permanent deal.
