Worrall’s performances have seen him linked several times with a move away from Trentside, with Premier League club Burnley said to be interested.
According to the Daily Mail, Forest value the 23-year-old at around £12m, but that is below what the Clarets are apparently willing to offer.
The report goes on to state that Sean Dyche’s side are only prepared to pay £6m for Worrall’s services, and could therefore look at alternative targets if a deal cannot be reached.
Forest have already let one of their key players go to a top flight club this window, with Matty Cash being sold to Aston Villa in a reported £12m deal which could rise to £16m with add-ons.
The Reds recently brought in 19-year-old central defender Loic Mbe Soh from Paris Saint-Germain, who will be keen to partner Worrall at the heart of the Forest defence.
