Nottingham Forest have agreed a fee worth around £50 million to sign Chelsea striker Liam Delap, the clubs have confirmed in separate statements.
The reported transfer represents a significant outlay by Forest as they look to strengthen their attacking options. Delap, who has been contracted to Chelsea, is expected to join the Premier League side following completion of the necessary formalities.
For Chelsea, the deal would generate substantial income as the club continues to manage its squad and finances. The transfer market has seen several high-value moves this window, and the Delap agreement is among the larger transactions involving English clubs.
Both clubs will now move to finalise paperwork and registration requirements to make the transfer official. Further details, including any add-ons or the player's contract length, were not disclosed in the initial announcements.
