RB Leipzig have submitted a £6m offer for the 19-year-old Nottingham Forest midfielder Matty Cash.

The Bundesliga club, who are second to Bayern Munich at the winter break, spent £13m to sign another teenager from Forest, Oliver Burke, in August.

Cash has made 12 appearances for Forest, who gave him his debut in August. His season was interrupted by an injury sustained in September which kept him out for two and a half months.

He joined Forest in 2014 from the FAB Academy, which gives a second chance to players released by professional clubs – in Cash’s case Wycombe Wanderers. Last season he spent time on loan at Dagenham & Redbridge in League Two, also playing 12 games.
