The Forest midfielder has also been linked with Leeds’ Yorkshire rivals Sheffield United this summer, although a move away from the City Ground has not materialised.
O’Brien found himself out of favour at Forest last season and was set to move to Blackburn Rovers on loan in January.

He is no stranger to Yorkshire having ascended the youth ranks at Huddersfield Town and spent time on loan at Bradford City.
However, he is not the only midfielder to have been linked with Leeds, who are said to be the frontrunners to land Glen Kamara from Rangers.
