According to The Nottingham Post, Nottingham Forest are in talks with Arsenal defender Carl Jenkinson, meaning that Celtic, West Bromwich Albion and Crystal Palace could miss out on the right-back.

The Nottingham Post has reported today that Forest are interested in signing Jenkinson from Premier League rival Arsenal in the summer transfer window.

The report has claimed that negotiations are going on, with Goal.com claiming that the Reds will have to pay the Gunners a transfer fee of £2 million in order to secure the services of the 27-year-old right-back.

It looks as though the former Charlton Athletic right-back is on his way to Forest, meaning that their Championship rivals West Brom, Premier League outfit Palace and Scottish Premiership outfit Celtic are set to miss out.

According to The Sun, Palace want to sign Jenkinson, while Sky Sports have credited West Brom and Celtic with interest in the Arsenal right-back.

Jenkinson has been at Arsenal since 2011, but the England international has failed to establish himself in the Gunners’ first team.
