Leeds United are reportedly in pole position to sign Nottingham Forest transfer target Che Adams.
According to The Athletic , the Southampton striker is to choose Leeds with Forest also interested in the former Ilkeston striker.
Adams has struggled for Saints this season and is yet to score a goal for the club he cost £15 million when he joined from Birmingham City in the summer.
His 22-goal season for Blues last campaign prompted Ralph Hasenhuttl's side to fork out the big-money sum for the 23-year-old, but hasn't netted despite playing in 19 games this season.
Forest are in the market for a striker this month as Sabri Lamouchi looks to ease the burden on star forward Lewis Grabban.
The Reds have been linked with Eddie Nketiah - who returned from Leeds to parent club Arsenal last week - Newcastle United's Dwight Gayle and Billy Sharp of Sheffield United.
