Newcastle United are in talks with Nottingham Forest over a potential £55m deal to sign winger Anthony Elanga.

While no agreement has been reached yet for the transfer of the 23-year-old Sweden international, sources have told BBC Sport negotiations are progressing positively, with both clubs open to a deal.

While Forest have indicated £55m is the fee they are seeking for Elanga, Newcastle have declined to comment on that valuation.

Forest are believed to have paid £15m to sign Elanga from Manchester United on a five-year-deal in 2023.

He had joined the Old Trafford outfit at the age of 12 and made 55 appearances before moving to Nottingham.
