Nottingham Forest Reject Bid from Brentford<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Bees have already spent\u00a0<\/span>\u00a355 million<\/span><\/a>\u00a0this transfer window, breaking their club transfer record twice already via Kevin Schade and Nathan Collins. Despite this, the West Londoners are continuing to be spenders as they just had a\u00a0<\/span>\u00a335 million bid<\/span><\/a>\u00a0(plus add-ons) rejected for the Welsh international.<\/span><\/p>\n

Spurs have already boosted their offensive ranks this window with the additions of Manor Solomon and James Maddison, as well as the permanent signing of Dejan Kulusevski. This being said, going after the right-footed winger wouldn’t make much sense at this point, especially since they have a glaring need at\u00a0<\/span>centre-back<\/span><\/a>. If the Lilywhites decide to advance in their efforts to sign the forward and they fail to boost their defence in any way – fans will surely be irate.<\/span><\/p>\n
