Nottingham Forest Eyes Permanent Deal for Lewis O’Brien
Nottingham Forest is looking to sell Lewis O’Brien this summer, with a permanent deal favored by both parties. The midfielder’s successful loan spell at Swansea City has sparked interest from several clubs, including Hull City, Birmingham City, and Southampton.
Hull City’s Bid
According to reports, Hull City has submitted a £5 million bid for O’Brien, which is expected to be followed by further negotiations. Forest may look to secure a higher fee, given their initial £10 million investment in the player.
Best Option for O’Brien
A permanent deal would be in O’Brien’s best interest, allowing him to kickstart his career after being frozen out of Forest’s squad under Nuno Espírito Santo. With several clubs interested, Forest should prioritize a smooth transfer over maximizing the fee, ensuring O’Brien’s future is secured without risking a deal collapse.
