Nottingham Forest look to have suffered a transfer blow.
The Reds are understood to have placed Brighton's Glenn Murray on a shortlist of striker targets ahead of the January transfer window, with boss Sabri Lamouchi eager to bolster the firepower at the City Ground.
Lewis Grabban is enjoying a good season in front of goal, with 10 goals to his name in 21 matches.
But on-loan Wolves forward Rafa Mir has failed to find the back of the net in 13 matches.
With Forest battling it out in the play-off place in the Championship, Lamouchi is keen to add more goals to his squad, with Southampton striker Che Adams also thought to be a target, alongside Murray and Dwight Gayle.
Murray has only started three times for Brighton in the Premier League so far this season, making eight sub appearances.
But The Athletic say Murray is "as happy as he has ever been, despite not playing", which suggests he might not be open to a move in January.
