Midfielder Oliver Burke is one of several players West Brom will look to sell during the summer transfer window, a report from The Daily Telegraph has claimed.
Burke has made just 21 appearances in all competitions for the Baggies since joining for a reported £15million from Leipzig in the summer of 2017, and has spent the last season and a half out on loan with Celtic and Alaves.
Now it seems as though Burke could be set for a more permanent exit this summer, with the latest reports claiming that West Brom will look to sell the 23-year-old in order to make room for new signings in the squad ahead of their return to the Premier League next season.
Burke of course started his career at Forest, making 31 appearances in all competitions for the club after graduating from Forest’s academy, before moving on to Leipzig in the summer of 2016.
Taking to Twitter to react to this update on Burke, plenty of Forest fans were keen to discuss the prospect of bringing the midfielder back to The City Ground this summer.
Here, we take a look at what some of those supporters had to say.
Be interesting to see where Oli Burke goes now #nffc

I love the idea of Oliver Burke on loan. Think it’d galvanise his career to be around friendly faces and be backed by his people. Take a chance. Imagine an inform Burke and Joe Lolley on either wing 😍#nffc

I guess wanting Oli Burke back is down to many #nffc fans feeling that if there's anywhere that he can rediscover himself and the player he can be, it would be back home with us. Maybe..? I would take that gamble if the price is right. Thoughts Forest fans? https://t.co/lfFYt5wGWF
