Nottingham Forest continue their pursuit of Sam Johnstone... with the club preparing a bid worth £15m for the Crystal Palace goalkeeper after having a loan offer rejected

Nottingham Forest have resumed talks with Crystal Palace for goalkeeper Sam Johnstone after a loan offer was dismissed earlier this week.

Forest are proposing a £15m deal for 30-year-old Johnstone who is keen on the move to boost his chances of a return to the England squad.

Johnstone has won four England caps since making his senior international bow in 2021, but faces competition from the likes of Jordan Pickford, Dean Henderson, Aaron Ramsdale and Nick Pope for a place in Gareth Southgate's squad at this summer's European Championships.
