JUST NOW:Nottingham Forest’s transfer position outlines their continued “interest” in the £8.7 million-rated striker…….

Batshuayi departed for Fenerbahce when the transfer from Stamford Bridge to the City Ground failed. But this season, he has mostly had to make due with playing off the bench as he has battled to get consistent playing time.

According to the Turkish daily Sozcu, the footballer has now stated his intention to quit. It is rumored that Fenerbahce has put a 10 million euro (£8.7 million) price tag on his head, and Forest and Lens are monitoring the situation.

After Batshuayi returned from his international assignment, it is rumored that manager Ismail Kartal advised him to “keep yourself ready as if you will play at any time.” The report claims that the forward did not respond.

In an attempt to increase their alternatives up front, the Reds brought Origi into the team during the summer. He hasn’t yet been named in the starting lineup, though, and has had a very quiet debut at Trentside.

He might have a chance while Taiwo Awoniyi is recovering from an injury.But it wouldn’t be shocking if a striker topped Forest’s shopping list in January or next summer.
