Nottingham Forest are reportedly planning to swoop for former Aston Villa defender Eric Lichaj.
The American is a free agent after being released by Paul Lambert's side at the end of the season, and has attracted interest from several clubs, Sky Sports News reports.
Lichaj joined Villa as a trainee in 2008, making 42 appearances during his career at Villa Park, 23 of which were last season.
The full-back is seeking first-team football to boost his chances of securing a World Cup place with the USA next year, with Forest believed to be the frontrunners to secure his services.
