Nottingham Forest are working on a deal to sign Harrison Armstrong from Everton.<\/p>\n

Talks for the 19-year-old midfielder, who has made 22 first-team appearances for Everton, centre on a deal worth around \u00a340million plus a sell-on clause.<\/p>\n

Armstrong has previously had loan spells at Championship clubs Derby County and Preston North End, but has been integrated into David Moyes\u2019s first-team squad since his return to the club earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The central midfielder was named in Everton\u2019s starting line-up for Saturday\u2019s Premier League match at Bournemouth.<\/p>\n

Forest are aiming to strengthen in central midfield after England international Elliot Anderson joined Manchester City in a for a fee of \u00a3116million ($153m) earlier in the window.<\/p>\n

Austria international Xaver Schlager, who arrived as a free agent after leaving RB Leipzig earlier this summer, has featured in Forest\u2019s opening two games of the campaign but the club are hopeful of adding another midfielder to Oliver Glasner\u2019s squad.<\/p>\n

Everton\u2019s midfield has undergone change this summer too, with Hayden Hackney and Christian Norgaard joining from Middlesbrough and Arsenal respectively, while Merlin Rohl\u2019s move from Freiburg was made permanent following a loan spell.<\/p>\n
