According to a report in the Telegraph, Nottingham Forest are aiming to sign Charly Musonda on loan from Chelsea.

Musonda has been made available by Chelsea, who are keen to see the winger go out and get regular first-team football.

The Belgian winger has played just 25 minutes of Premier League football this term, and Chelsea feel that he needs to go out elsewhere to develop.
