Nickson, the club’s head of recruitment, was furloughed last month along with his staff.
However, the Daily Mail report that Nickson has returned to work as the Premier League assesses a proposed £300million takeover.
Nickson had drawn up lists of potential targets before football was shutdown due to the coronavirus pandemic.
It’s also claimed that the club’s players could return to training late next week.
