Nottingham Forest are expected to make a formal offer for Manchester City attacking midfielder James McAtee with Morgan Gibbs-White bound for Tottenham.

The report adds that Serie A trio Atalanta BC, Fiorentina and Roma are also among the admirers for McAtee, but Forest, Dortmund and Frankfurt have ’maintained contact from the start’ since it became apparent that Guardiola would sanction an exit for the Englishman.

Nottingham Forest have learned the price it will take to sign Manchester City's James McAtee but face competition from other teams around Europe.
