Nottingham Forest have accepted an offer to listen to the VAR audio linked to three penalty claims in their match against Everton, it is understood.
Referees' body Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) extended an offer to Forest on Tuesday to hear the audio in private, after the club asked on Monday for the audio to be released publicly.
Sources close to the Premier League outfit were initially unhappy that the audio would not be released publicly as requested, but it is understood the club have now accepted the offer to hear it privately.
Forest issued an extraordinary statement on social media immediately after their 2-0 defeat at Goodison Park, in which Forest said they had "warned" PGMOL before the match that VAR Stuart Attwell "was a Luton fan", and PGMOL did nothing to change his appointment.
The Premier League could charge the club in relation to that statement, with the league saying it was "extremely disappointed" by their comments and adding that it was "never appropriate to improperly question the integrity of match officials".
