two areas of the pitch of course that he did identify right at the start of the summer with regard to strengthening Center back we've had frustration today regarding Mark Gay of Crystal Palace and now it looks like more frustration um with Anthony alanga as well but Eddie how telling us um earlier today that the club is working tirelessly uh behind the scenes uh to try to try and you know get reinforcements in that area that is an area of the pitch that they do need to have a look at it does appear a little bit light especially off the back of the sale of yanuba M to Brighton remember but uh just for now more frustration for Newcastle and it appears that Nottingham Forest insistence on a player in exchange uh for Anthony alanga is where this particular deal uh broke down but look the clock is still ticking still hope for Newcastle United and confirmation from Eddie how um earlier today that they're going to be working tirelessly right up until that last second to try and get something over the line a new center back and maybe a player on the right side of Midfield as well those two key areas and we'll try our utmost to bring you some news if there are any developments yes we'd love that Nick thank you right that's the view from Newcastle then let's head straight to Rob Dorset who is at the city ground Rob what is it going to take for Forest to let elanga go well they don't want to let him go that's been made very very clear to me uh that initial 35 Plus million pound bid was rejected straight away and Nick is correct that there was some discussion between the two clubs I understand in terms of a possible player going in the other direction coming here to the city ground as part of the deal but that was never something that Forest were actively pursuing the facts of the matter are they didn't think £35 million was anywhere near enough to leave an Anthony alanga sized hole in their squad very late in the transfer window the impression I get is that that bid from Newcastle was much earlier today and they haven't come back with an increased offer and that suits Nottingham Forest they don't want to lose Anthony Langer who scored five goals and had nine assists for them in the Premier League last season and who Nuno spirito Santos sees as a key part of the squad in fact Forest are focused on trying to improve their squad expand it with the final hours of this transfer window we've been telling you all day haven't we that an agreement is in place with J for with West Ham for a loan deal for James Ward prous he is undergoing a medical as I speak to you right now and Forest very hopeful and confident I think that they'll get that one over the line before the 11 CL deadline likewise morat the Brazilian Center back from Benfica a deal likely to cost Forest around 15 million pounds he's undergoing his medical at the same time as James Ward prous that one's a little bit more complicated in terms of the contract but again Forest I think are confident of getting that one over the line so they don't want to talk about losing Anthony Al langa or any other players in the squad right now they're focused on expanding it with James Ward prow and the Brazilian Center back morat [Music]
