"Wolves are open to selling striker Jorgen Strand Larsen this month, amid interest from Nottingham Forest. The Premier League's bottom side recognise allowing the 25-year-old to leave may be best for all parties, if the right deal could be found. That would include a switch to the City Ground, despite Forest being one of the teams also fighting against the drop from the Premier League."
"West Ham's interest in Strand Larsen has cooled after being asked for 40m, and they have bought Valentin Castellanos and Pablo Felipe instead. Newcastle's priorities are now elsewhere after they failed with a 55m bid in the summer and signed Nick Woltemade. Sean Dyche's Forest are seven points clear of the relegation zone - and 15 above Wolves - after Tuesday's 2-1 win at West Ham."
"Strand Larsen has been targeted by unhappy Wolves fans this season, having scored just one Premier League goal. It is part of the reason why Wolves are willing to allow the Norway international to leave, even though he only made his initial loan move from Celta Vigo permanent last July for 23m. Yet, Strand Larsen is well-respected behind the scenes, where he is seen as a leader."
Wolves are open to selling striker Jorgen Strand Larsen this month and view a departure as potentially best for all parties if a suitable deal emerges. Nottingham Forest have shown interest amid injury issues to Chris Wood and possible striker departures. West Ham and Newcastle have expressed varying levels of interest, with West Ham cooling after a 40m asking price. Strand Larsen has underperformed this season with one Premier League goal but retains respect internally for his professionalism and leadership after a 14-goal debut season and a five-year contract signed in September.
