Two more Nottingham Forest academy products are said to be attracting interest.
Nottingham Forest have received a £6 million offer for Matty Cash from RB Leipzig as Manchester United weigh-up another seven-figure bid for Ben Brereton, according to the Daily Mirror.
Teenage midfielder Cash has impressed since breaking into Forest’s first team this season and could follow former teammate Oliver Burke to the Bundesliga high-flyers, with the report stating that Reds owner Fawaz Al Hasawi is ‘clearing the decks and bringing in as much money as he can before selling on the former European Champions to American investors’.

Cash, it seems, may not be the only academy product departing the City Ground this month, with under-23 striking sensation Brereton said to have caught the eye of Manchester United.
Brereton is yet to feature for Forest at senior level, but is very highly thought of on Trentside, where he signed a new contract just last week.
The report suggests, however, that this was merely a move to bump up the 17-year-old’s asking price.
