Global media outlet The Athletic reported on the 22nd that "Wood is likely to sign a new contract with a club that has achieved remarkable results in the wake of his Nottingham Forest teammate Murillo".
Currently, Wood is reportedly offered a two-year contract after negotiations with Nottingham and has completed an oral agreement. The contract will be officially signed soon.
Wood's existing contract was set to expire after the end of this season. His colleague Murillo recently signed a long-term contract for more than four years.
Wood has received interest from MLS and Saudi professional league teams, but is currently happy with Nottingham and is in top form.
Wood, 33, has scored 14 goals in 22 EPL appearances this season. It is the fourth-highest number of goals scored after Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, Manchester City's Erling Holan and Newcastle United's Alexander Isak.

Wood is a year older than Son Heung-min, but Nottingham has shown trust in the player by pushing for a two-year renewal. It is a different situation from Tottenham, which triggered a one-year extension option after dragging its contract with Son Heung-min, whose skills have deteriorated. Moreover, Son Heung-min was a legendary player who devoted himself to Tottenham for about 10 years, so it was regrettable.
This trust in the player has boosted his skills and team atmosphere, and Nottingham is third in the league with 13 wins, five draws and four losses and 44 points this season. If it maintains its current pace, it is not unreasonable to secure a ticket to the UEFA Champions League.
On the other hand, Tottenham, whose trust in the team including the captain is low, has fallen to 15th place with 7 wins, 3 draws and 12 losses and 24 points this season. There are only three steps left until the relegation zone.
