Neco Williams of Nottingham Forest is reportedly getting interest from Leeds United and Feyenoord.

The 22-year-old has started only four Premier League games this season. And now it is said that Feyenoord may consider taking advantage of his circumstances at the City Ground.

According to Dutch site 1908 NL, Williams’ name has been ‘put up for review’ with Feyenoord’s scouting department. They also state that a deal for the Welsh international is’relatively possible’ for the Eredivisie club.

However, little information is available on how far the discussions for the move have progressed. Leeds, according to The Athletic, is looking to strengthen its defensive options after losing Djed Spence and Luke Ayling to other clubs.

Boss Daniel Farke said: “We have a few places where we are a touch understaffed, but I also understand the January market is difficult. The players on the market right now are those who are returning from injury or are not playing; no one wants to sell away players who are playing consistently.

“We are working hard behind the scenes, but it is difficult to get quality and experienced players. We need to be more patient, but we are cautiously optimistic.

However, The Athletic reports that the Reds are hesitant to sanction a deal for the Welshman. Forest have spent more over £250 million on new players since their promotion to the Premier League in May 2022. The club is in risk of receiving a fine or losing points, therefore selling players may assist to balance the books.
