Several clubs, including Fulham, are admiring Nottingham Forest's James McAtee. Leeds United and Sunderland are also named as admirers. Speculation about the 23-year-old English attacking midfielder's future has re-emerged due to his limited playing time since a summer move. Mail Sport reports that Chelsea is one of five clubs that have shown interest. Bournemouth is also mentioned as a club that might be interested and may consider a loan deal. The former England U21 international has 24 caps and 8 goals at that level. He has made only 6 league appearances since joining Forest in August 2025 for a reported fee of €25.5M, which could rise to €34M. His contract runs until June 2030, and his current market value is €23.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
