LIVERPOOL are demanding at least £15million for Neco Williams after rejecting an offer from Nottingham Forest.
Sun Sport exclusively revealed on Sunday that Steve Cooper’s newly-promoted side were closing in on the Reds defender and Morgan Gibbs-White from Wolves.
The £35million double swoop comes after they nabbed Union Berlin’s Taiwo Awoniyi in a club-record £17.2m move.
However, the Daily Mail now claims that Forest must cough up more if they want to get Williams.
The 21-year-old shone on loan at Fulham as he helped them win the Championship and return to the Premier League.
Those displays have led to huge interest in the defender with Forest leading the chase.
