? Bristol club reluctant to lose their 24-year-old striker

Nottingham Forest are prepared to offer the forward David McGoldrick as a makeweight to help secure the signing of Nicky Maynard from Bristol City.

Steve McClaren, the Forest manager, has confirmed his interest in signing Maynard, who cost �2.25m when he joined City from Crewe Alexandra in 2008.

City are reluctant to lose the 24-year-old striker, who has also attracted interest from Leicester and West Ham, but Forest hope that offering McGoldrick as part of the deal will help to push the transfer through.
