Nottingham Forest negotiating £40m deal for Everton midfielder Harrison Armstrong

Nottingham Forest is in negotiations with Everton to sign 19-year-old midfielder Harrison Armstrong. The potential deal is valued at approximately £40 million, which may include a sell-on clause for Everton.

Forest is looking to bolster its central midfield following the departure of Elliot Anderson to Manchester City for a significant fee. While the club has added Austrian international Xaver Schlager, management is seeking further reinforcements to support Oliver Glasner’s squad before the transfer window closes.

Armstrong, an England youth international, has made over 20 first-team appearances for Everton and has previously spent time on loan at Derby County and Preston North End.
