Nottingham Forest have reportedly been given a boost in the race to sign Brighton and Hove Albion striker Neal Maupay, with the striker said to favour a move to the City Ground.
Steve Cooper is keen to add more firepower to his squad during the final weeks of the transfer window, with Maupay emerging as a target. Forest do, however, have competition for the 26-year-old this summer.
It is claimed that both Fulham and Everton are also interested in the striker this summer, providing a potential stumbling block for Forest to complete the deal. The Reds are said to have had a £15million bid accepted by Brighton for the striker over the weekend.
