Brighton reportedly accepted a bid from Nottingham Forest for Lewis Dunk in the January transfer window.
Sean Dyche’s side were heavily linked with a move for the defender last month as part of their search for a new centre-back and desire to inject some leadership into their backline.
Their admiration was largely viewed as being ‘speculative’, but it has since emerged that Forest came closer to securing the services of the Seagulls skipper than initially perceived.
According to the Daily Mail, the Tricky Trees managed to strike an agreement with Brighton to sign Dunk, but the player himself rejected the chance to head to the City Ground.
