Nottingham Forest will have to pay £26 million for Allan Saint-Maximin to tempt Newcastle United into selling.
That is according to Gianluca Di Marzio, via Daily Express, who claim the Magpies have placed this valuation on him amid interest from Serie A side AC Milan. Saint Maximin's representatives are said to have held talks with the Rossoneri, but at this stage, they would be unable to meet the current asking price.
Forest are among the teams to have been linked with the Frenchman this month, with the Telegraph reporting Steve Cooper's side enquired about his availability during talks over a deal for Chris Wood. Wood, of course, made the switch to the City Ground from Newcastle last week on an initial loan deal.
