Nottingham Forest are reported to have had a third bid rejected for Blackpool winger Josh Bowler.
The Reds have stepped up their pursuit of the 22-year-old as they chase attacking reinforcements before next Monday’s deadline.
Bowler and Millwall’s Jed Wallace remain top targets, with that interest heightened by Brentford upping their offer for Nigel Doughty Academy graduate Brennan Johnson.
