Exactly playing 53 times in the championship by the time he is 19 shows he has potential

No it's suggests we bid ?

But for that money you used to get 5 Jordan Slews - is he that good?

It's a lot of money for potential, but (From Wikipedia):

 

Brereton was subsequently called up to represent England at the 2017 UEFA European Under-19 Championship.^[14] In the group stage, he scored the winner against the Netherlands^[15] and twice against Germany.^[16] Brereton was a second-half substitute during the victory against Portugal in the final.^[17] His total of three goals meant Brereton was joint top goalscorer at the tournament.^[18] Brereton also played at the 2018 UEFA European Under-19 Championship, scoring his only goal of the tournament in the opening group stage match against Turkey.^[19]

 

You can't really argue that he hasn't delivered at the levels he's played at.

People writing off this lad because they’ve never heard of him. ?

Expand  

No one is writing him off. People haven't seen him play. It doesn't matter anyway because he isn't coming. If he's as good as people are making out then 5 million is a derisory offer. Why has it gone in this late. It's all smoke and mirrors as usual

Ben brereton' best quality is his pace...hes going to run all the way from nottingham to ewood in under 10 minutes

Nixon is a cheeky twat tweeting that. He was saying all summer we had no money. Now he is saying he knew. That guy....

I see your point, but he also played in the Dutch league and tried to transition the Premier League, 53 games in the league we're in is probably a different story.

That's class.

A couple of injuries and it's a bottom of the league squad

[AdamRochina]

Why would forrest sell him if he's really good to a league rival. ..waghorn went for more,  smoke and mirrors and some of you are falling for it 

[Paul Mellelieu]

So, we've had resources and targets, and bids, but no signings, bar Armstrong.  Either players don't see us as an attractive proposition, or someone has done a poor job.

[blueboy3333]

These are his highlights. He's a big powerful unit but £5m?!! He's no Harry Chapman!

Same for a lot of clubs 

[Guest]

Forest fans not happy if he goes for £5million, claim he is worth at least double that. Don't know if anyone remembers forest against arsenal in the FA cup last season when an 18 year old ran arsenal ragged? That's the guy, hard to say a coup at £5million, but the kind of player i'm happy we are targeting.

Heard ya the first 5 times...

[TruRover]

There's no way this is gonna happen, we don't even know if the bids been accepted and the window is gonna close in 8 mins. Suggestions are that the bid falls short of forests valuation. Warming to the idea of the signing IF it did happen but think we are out of time with this one.
