The 26-year-old centre-back has been an unused substitute in Southampton’s last three Premier League games and the club are open to selling him on deadline day.

 

West Ham have been tracking the defender for a while and Aston Villa, Napoli and Marseille are also interested in the player.

 

 

But there is likely to be more interest from clubs in the Premier League for Bednarek going into the final hours of the transfer window.

 

And it has been claimed that Nottingham Forest are interested in getting their hands on the centre-back today.

 

 

The Midlands club have signed 18 players in the ongoing transfer window but remain alive to more opportunities on deadline day.

 

Steve Cooper would not mind strengthening his defensive resources before the window closes tonight.

 

 

And the Poland centre-back is definitely a player Nottingham Forest are keeping tabs on him as the hours run down on the transfer window.
