The Liverpool winger is said to have interest from Nottingham Forest and Reading.

Sheyi Ojo of Liverpool runs during a pre-season friendly match between Bury and Liverpool at Gigg Lane on July 14, 2018 in Bury, England.

Liverpool are ready to sell Sheyi Ojo as Nottingham Forest and Reading circle, according to the Sun.

Ojo is currently involved in Liverpool’s pre-season tour of the United States, but is said to be ‘nowhere near’ Jurgen Klopp’s side.

And the newspaper claims the winger could be allowed to fly home for talks if Forest or Reading can raise the £10 million fee desired by the Reds.

Winger Ojo scored four goals and set up two to help Fulham to promotion from the Championship last season, and Nottingham Forest or Reading will be hoping for a similar impact if they can lure the 21-year-old from Anfield.

Sheyi Ojo of Fulham runs with the ball during the Sky Bet Championship match between Fulham and Sheffield United at Craven Cottage on March 6, 2018 in London, England.

The Sun reports that Liverpool will also allow Pedro Chirivella to leave for around £5 million, with Swansea City ‘keen to recruit’ the central midfielder, in whom Forest have also been credited with interest by the Daily Mirror.

Ojo is a product of the Milton Keynes Dons academy which also spawned the Tottenham Hotspur and England attacking midfielder Dele Alli.
