Nottingham Forest are interested in re-signing Jack Colback from Newcastle United now he is available again.

According to a report in the Northern Echo, Newcastle United are set to hold discussions with Nottingham Forest over Jack Colback today.

Colback seemed to be getting a second chance at Newcastle this summer, but Steve Bruce has decided that he remains surplus to requirements.

Forest could now take him back, and are set to meet with Newcastle this morning to talk about a loan move.

Colback spent last season on loan at Forest, and he impressed at the City Ground.

Sabri Lamouchi now wants to take Colback from Newcastle, as he is available.

The transfer is unlikely to cause much concern around Newcastle, as Colback has lost popularity with many of the St. James’ Park crowd.

However, his departure could leave Bruce short in centre of the pitch.

Newcastle have already lost Mo Diame this summer, and they have not brought in another central midfielder so far.
