Nottingham Forest are eyeing Sunderland winger Tom Watson.

The Sun says Forest are scouting the 17 year-old midfielder.

Watson penned new terms with Sunderland last month amid interest from Forest.

Forest rated Watson at £300,000 in the last window but know his value has gone up with his new contract.

Watson has made one senior appearance for Sunderland, coming off the bench for the Black Cats last season against Huddersfield Town.
