Nottingham Forest set to miss out on transfer as Premier League rivals 'closing in' on £16m deal

Nottingham Forest are reportedly set to miss out on signing Hull City forward Keane Lewis-Potter despite "registering their interest" earlier this summer.

The England under-21 international scored 13 goals across all competitions last season and assisted another four. Two of those strikes came against the Reds, with the winger netting the opener at the City Ground before Forest came back to win 2-1, as well as cancelling out Brennan Johnson's added-time strike with an even later effort on the final day of the season in the East Riding.

That form in the youngster's debut season in the Championship has seen a host of Premier League clubs linked with offering a further step up to the top flight ahead of next season. Everton, Southampton and West Ham United all reportedly joined Forest in "registering an interest" in the player, but Brentford apparently lead the pack.
