Gary McSheffrey is wanted again by Nottingham Forest. The former City striker had been on loan at Forest but had to cut short his spell at the City ground after his knee injury flared up.
McSheffrey, who joined Birmingham City from Coventry for £2.235m, has since had a knee operation and should be ok for next season.
