Brighton & Hove Albion defender Haydon Roberts - who has been linked with Nottingham Forest - could go out on loan before the end of the January transfer window.
Forest were first credited with an interest in the 19-year-old in November, while Sheffield Wednesday, Swansea City and Cardiff City are also said to be keen.
Roberts was on loan at League Two side Rochdale last season but since returning to the south coast, he has struggled to force his way into the first team - being restricted to just four appearances across all competitions.
