Nottingham Forest could now sign a player who could become as good as Adam Wharton

Nottingham Forest is reportedly considering a move for Lyon midfielder Tyler Morton in the upcoming January transfer window. The 23-year-old former Liverpool player has been compared to Adam Wharton, with suggestions that manager Oliver Glasner could maximize his development in the midfield role.

Lee Clarke reports that Lyon's financial situation makes Morton available, though Forest faces potential competition from Newcastle and Liverpool. If a permanent deal materializes, Clarke suggests it could prompt departures from Forest's midfield, with Nicolas Dominguez and Ryan Yates facing limited playing time.
