Nottingham Forest face competition from Premier League duo for £7m defender

Nottingham Forest are reportedly monitoring Hull City defender Jacob Greaves ahead of next season.

The 22-year-old is regarded as a top prospect outside of the top-flight. He came through the Tigers' youth set-up, before making his first senior appearance in 2020.

Greaves has enjoyed another campaign at the MKM Stadium, and is comfortable operating in different positions, such as central defence and left-back. He was the subject of strong interest from Middlesbrough last summer, though remained at the club after Boro's bid fell short.

Having surpassed the 100-game mark for the Tigers, Greaves is catching the eye of a host of Premier League sides. Alongside Forest, Brentford and Aston Villa are also claimed to be interested, according to the Daily Mail.

It is reported that the Tigers would be willing to do business for a fee of around £7million, despite Greaves committing to a long-term contract until 2026, last summer.
