Nottingham Forest to 'confirm" double swoop, but Blackpool to win the Josh Bowler transfer battle

Nottingham Forest will confirm the arrivals of Stoke City striker Sam Surridge, and Dijon defender Jonathan Panzo. However, they may miss out on Blackpool's Josh Bowler.

Reds are understood to have agreed a fee of around PS2m for Potters forward Surridge with his announcement expected tonight and are also set to clinch Panzo's signature as he completed the formalities of his switch earlier this evening.

all bids for Bowler as Forest also chased Millwall's Jed Wallace - and both players now look set to stay until the end of the season.

John Percy, Telegraph journalist, tweeted: " #nffc" to update Forest on the search for a new winger. However, barring any unexpected drama, he will not sign a winger.

"Blackpool FC rejected several bids for Josh Bowler, but insist that he will remain. Millwall also rejected offers for Jed Wallace."

Forest had hoped to add a winger before the deadline, but they have enjoyed an excellent January window despite not being able to.
