According to the Mail Online, Forest have submitted a £25million bid for the defender in the hopes of getting him on board before the transfer deadline.
The 24-year-old has been subject to interest from a number of clubs this summer and is said to be keen on a Stamford Bridge exit.
He has fallen down the pecking order at Chelsea and is yet to feature under new boss Mauricio Pochettino.
If Chalobah is to join Forest he will be one of a number of signings who have made the switch to the City Ground in the dying embers of the transfer window.
Steve Cooper’s side have reportedly agreed a fee with PSV over the transfer of Ibrahim Sangare.
Whilst Callum Hudson-Odoi and Odysseas Vlachodimos are also said to be signing for the Tricky Trees.
