The Board of Directors of Nottingham Forest can confirm that the estate of Nigel Doughty has granted an exclusive period of negotiation to Messrs. Fawaz, Abdulaziz & Omar Al-Hasawi over the potential purchase of the club.
Advisors on behalf of the Al-Hasawi family are conducting the usual buyer's due diligence, assisted by the estate and senior management at the football club.
At this time we ask fans to ignore all media speculation and we will update supporters as soon as there is anything material to report.
In the meantime, the renewal period for season tickets remains extended until such time as there is certainty with regard to the ownership of the club.
The Board of Nottingham Forest would like to thank supporters for their patience and understanding at this difficult time.
The Board will not be making any further comment at this time.
