Napoli defender Olivera in the frame for Forest?

CLAIMS OF TALKS AND INCREASED OFFER - WHILE LIVERPOOL'S TSIMIKAS ALSO ON THE RADAR

- By SARAH CLAPSON

NOTTINGHAM Forest's search for a left-back is producing a few twists and turns as transfer deadline day draws nearer.

The Reds have until 7pm on February 2 to get any January deals done. So far, they are yet to add any new signings to Sean Dyche's squad.

Adding a striker is a priority, but Forest also want to strengthen at fullback.

Oleksandr Zinchenko's loan is set to be cut short, with the Arsenal man in line to join Ajax, leaving Dyche in need of additional resources in that department.
