Nottingham Forest are ready to fight French side Marseille for Besiktas defender Romain Saiss.

The former Wolves stopper is being linked with a move back to the Premier League.

Per Nottinghamshire Live, a bid of around £3.4 million may have already gone in for Saiss.

However, Marseille are also very interested, which could lead to a bidding war.

Turkiye Gazetesi states that Besiktas are not too keen to sell Saiss, as he had a good season.

They would welcome a bidding war to raise any fee they would get for the experienced centre half.
