Nottingham Forest head coach Oliver Glasner said he is "confident" two more players will arrive at the club before the end of the transfer window - and one of those new signings could be Chelsea striker Liam Delap.
The 23-year-old, who left Ipswich Town in a £30m deal in June 2025, could be available for £50m this summer, as reported by BBC Sport's Nizaar Kinsella and Sami Mokbel.
Delap is training separately from Xabi Alonso's first-team squad, having only scored two goals and registered four assists in 41 appearances last season.
It is unclear whether the Reds would prefer a permanent transfer or a loan deal but it appears the writing is on the wall for his future at Stamford Bridge, having lost the number nine shirt to Joao Pedro.
His arrival in the East Midlands would provide competition for Chris Wood, Igor Jesus and Arnaud Kalimuendo, following Taiwo Awoniyi's exit to Coventry City.
The club recently announced Wood would wear the number nine shirt this season, with Jesus taking up the vacant number 11 shirt.
Do Forest need another striker in their ranks? Would you be happy with this signing? Would Delap come in as the club's first choice?
