Nottingham Forest are reportedly “nearing a move” for Newcastle United striker Chris Wood.
Steve Cooper admitted last week that he was “hopeful” of more new signings coming in as Forest look to strengthen their squad and ensure Premier League survival, with the team currently sat in 13th. Both Gustavo Scarpa and Danilo have already arrived at the City Ground this month.
An attacking player is also understood to be on Forest’s wishlist and The Times has reported that the club are “working” on a possible loan deal for Newcastle forward Wood. The Magpies stumped up £25m to sign the 31-year-old from Burnley last January as manager Eddie Howe looked to stave off the threat of relegation and now find themselves third in the league.
