Nottingham Forest and Derby County are both said to be interested in the Leicester City man.

According to a report in the Nottingham Post, Nottingham Forest could be beaten to Andy King by Derby County.

Both Forest and Derby are keen on signing King, who Leicester City are open to selling.

And Frank Lampard’s side are reportedly likely to come out on top in the race, ahead of Forest.

Swansea City are also considered an option for King, as he now weighs up his next move.

Martin O’Neill has reportedly felt that King could have offered energy and experience to Forest’s midfield.

But Derby are also hunting for additions in that area of the field, and could beat the Reds to the punch.

King has barely featured for Leicester this season, so is likely to be eager to move on, if the chance comes about.

Derby are currently in sixth place in the Championship table, four points ahead of Forest.
