Following his release from Aston Villa at the end of last season, Alan Hutton is a player in demand as preparations for the 2019/20 campaign begin to take shape.
The Scotland international was an unsung hero for Dean Smith's side last season, making 34 appearances for the Villans, whilst playing at right-back, centre-half and left-back all on various occasions.
Football Insider now claim that Wigan Athletic are in advanced talks with the 34-year-old, but The Sun also claims that the experienced defender is closing in on a move to Nottingham Forest.

The latter missed out on a play-off spot last season, but manager Martin O'Neill will be looking to reshape the squad left at his disposal by Aitor Karanka last season, as he looks to take his side one step further next term.
The Reds had Tendayi Darikwa, Saidy Janko and Sam Byram as their right-back options last term, with Byram making a fantastic impact whilst on loan from West Ham, despite making only a handful of appearances towards the end of the season due to injury.
Hutton is a player that Forest fans will know well - the defender made seven appearances on loan at the City Ground back in the 2012/13 campaign, and here, we take a look at Forest fans' reactions to this potential signing.
