Gaetan Bong, 31, has featured little in the Premier League this season under Graham Potter and Forest are keen to add the Cameroon international to their ranks.

The left back joined Brighton on a free transfer from Wigan Athletic in 2015 and has made 91 appearances for the club. He previously played for Olympiacos, Valenciennes, Tours and Metz and has 16 caps for Cameroon.
