Nottingham Forest target England star – as ‘big fan’ Sean Dyche hopes to persuade him to join relegation battle at the City Ground


Lewis Dunk is a target for Nottingham Forest boss Sean Dyche despite signing a new deal with Brighton only last month. 

The centre back agreed a one-year extension with the Seagulls in December but is now in the sights of Forest – as was first reported by Daily Mail Sport in November.

Dyche wants a proven Premier League defender to complement Nikola Milenkovic and Murillo and Dunk, 34, is top of his list. 

In order to persuade Dunk to join a relegation battle, Forest are likely to have to offer a longer deal and improved salary. 

Dyche has been a big fan of England international Dunk for some time. He scored one of the great goals to be disallowed by VAR, a volley against Dyche’s Everton in November 2023.
