It is understood that as Anthony Ellanda is about to transfer to Newcastle for £55 million, Nottingham Forest is accelerating the pace of summer signings. Belgian international Baccaryoko has become Nottingham Forest's main target and is expected to negotiate with Eredivisie clubs on their transfer to the Premier League.
