Newcastle United goalkeeper Karl Darlow is set to leave next month.
The Mirror says Forest are considering a move to bring Darlow back.
The goalkeeper left for Newcastle United in 2014 alongside defender Jamaal Lascelles in a £7m double deal.
The 28-year-old has played 58 times for the Premier League side, but only once this season.
With Martin Dubravka firmly established as the Toon's No1, Darlow could quit for regular first team football.
