Nottingham Forest have reportedly submitted a bid for Valencia defender Jesus Vazquez but face competition for his signature.
The 19-year-old Spaniard could be being lined up as a possible replacement for Max Lowe, who is going to be involved in Sheffield United's pre-season plans after a loan spell at the City Ground.
According to Spanish outlet COPE (via Sport Witness), the approach from Steve Cooper's team has not been a subtle declaration of interest over a phone call. They say it has been more of a "hand and fast offer" tactic from staff at the City Ground.
