Nottingham Forest are pushing hard to secure the signing of Jobe Bellingham, with concrete interest from several Premier League sides. They have been in contact to find out the conditions of a deal, as Forest are keen to add more depth to their squad for European football next season. Sources suggest Bellingham has a strong chance of playing in the Premier League next season, especially if Sunderland do not win the play-offs.

Nottingham Forest is reportedly interested in Jobe Bellingham and is open to discussing a transfer should Sunderland not achieve promotion. Bellingham, noted for his significant contributions to Sunderland, is under the surveillance of several Premier League teams, such as Manchester United, Brighton, and Brentford. It has been suggested that Bellingham is keen to compete at the highest level, and Nottingham Forest is ready to initiate discussions for his transfer if Sunderland fails to secure promotion. Nevertheless, Sunderland is in a strong position for negotiations due to Bellingham's contract, which extends until 2028, and will require a substantial fee for his transfer.
