Nottingham Forest on brink of signing Chris Burke
NOTTINGHAM FOREST are moving closer to signing Birmingham’s Chris Burke.
Although the Blues turned down Forest’s first offer for their midfielder, Alex McLeish is expected to come back with an improved offer which could be accepted.
The Forest boss has had his eye on Burke, and the pair know each other well from their time spent together at Rangers.
McLeish is hoping to make a number of additions to his squad and Burke is one of his main transfer targets.
Burke has scored twice in the Championship so far this season for Birmingham.
He is out of contract at St Andrews in the summer.
