Nottingham Forest have been handed a blow in their hopes of signing Burnley winger Maxwel Cornet this season, with West Ham agreeing a fee for the player, according to reports.
The Reds are keen to add further to their squad in the closing weeks of the transfer window. Steve Cooper is keen to add more players, particularly in attacking areas, before the window closes on Thursday, September 1.
One of the reported targets is Cornet, who impressed in his first season in the Premier League in 2021/22. After joining from Ligue 1 side Lyon last summer, the Ivory Coast international scored nine goals in the Premier League.
