Will James McAtee join West Ham? The latest report says no: Football Insider, relayed by Claret&Hugh, claims he is prepared to reject West Ham and would rather remain at Nottingham Forest.

That conflicts with earlier TEAMtalk reports that talks had begun and McAtee was keen on a reunion with Nuno Espírito Santo. Neither account establishes a bid, agreed fee, personal terms or agreement.
