NEW: Senior Nottingham City councillors have formally approved the sale of the City Ground freehold to Nottingham Forest
The club says any decision to purchase the freehold will be conditional on receiving relevant planning permission to significantly expand the stadium. Forest were granted planning permission by Rushcliffe Borough Council in July 2022 to expand the Peter Taylor stand, which would take overall capacity to 35k
The club wants to reach 40k by also expanding the Bridgford Stand which will need fresh planning permission
