Nottingham Forest eye transfer swoop for Southampton striker after £17m deal

Nottingham Forest are reportedly 'lining up' a move to sign Southampton striker Che Adams this summer.

The 25-year-old has been linked with the Reds during previous transfer windows, and that is the case again following the promotion back to the Premier League.

Head coach Steve Cooper is, though, said to 'want more firepower', with Lyle Taylor and Nuno da Costa the other options to lead the line against the Sky Blues in Spain. Adams would assumedly jump both of these alternatives, both of whom were loaned out last season, in the pecking order.
