West Ham United are still keeping a close eye on Nottingham Forest star Joe Worrall, according to reports.
As reported by The Sun, the Hammers are set to approach Forest in the summer should Steve Cooper and Co miss out on Premier League promotion.
It is not the first time the Forest academy graduate is being linked with a move away from the City Ground, with the Hammers being a long-term admirer of the centre-back.
Everton are also reportedly interested in the 25-year-old who has made over 160 appearances for the Reds.
Worrall has been a key player for Cooper's team as the Reds continue to close the gap to the promotion play-offs.
But should they fall short, it is likely that Forest will face a battle to keep some of their key players.
Brentford also tried their luck at the start of the season but were unsuccessful and now the Toffees have also shown an interest with their defence in disarray this season.
Forest are thought to want somewhere between £12million and £15m for Worrall.
Cooper previously said of Worrall: "If you look at his game back, some of the things he did with three broken ribs were incredible - and great testament to the guy that he is."
