Crystal Palace and Forest are lining up a move for Mark Yeates after his relegation from the Championship with Colchester United.
The Irish B international is keen not to drop down to League One and Crystal Palace boss Neil Warnock is an admirer of the former Spurs player.
Palace have qualified for the play-offs and therefore could yet make it to the Premier League but it's understood that Warnock will make an enquiry about Yeates either way.
Newly promoted Forest and another unnamed Championship club are also monitoring the situation of the 22-year-old attacker.
