Derby County lodge £5m Michail Antonio bid?

Derby County have reportedly made a club-record offer for Nottingham Forest winger Michail Antonio.

Antonio had been linked with a move to West Bromwich Albion, while Premier League new boys Bournemouth were also believed to be interested in a deal for the 25-year-old.

However, The Mirror claims that the Rams have now lodged a bid with their East Midlands rivals.

It is thought that Derby will need to smash their transfer record for a second time, following the signing of former Reds loanee Tom Ince.

Forest are said to be keen on keeping the winger, with suggestions that Antonio will need to submit a transfer request in order to facilitate a move away.
