Nottingham Forest are interested in AC Milan midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko.
The France international is beginning the second of a two-year loan at Milan from Chelsea.
La Gazzetta dello Sport says Milan are open to cutting loose Bakayoko before the market shuts.
And Forest are keen on bringing the midfielder back to England. They would take over the loan arrangement from Milan.
Last season, Bakayoko made only five starting appearances for the Rossonero.
