Ipswich Town are poised to sign out of favour Nottingham Forest keeper Lee Camp, according to reports.
Mick McCarthy is closing in on the capture of Camp after Alex McLeish told him he needs to find a new club.
If the Northern Ireland international is to complete a move to Ipswich he will join up with former team mates Luke Chambers and David McGoldrick.
Camp's performances at Forest have proved him to be one of the best keepers outside the Premier League and McCarthy hopes to land the 28-year-old in the next few days.
Meanwhile, Forest are stepping up their search for an experienced keeper who can replace camp.
Alex McLeish is reported to be monitoring several keepers as he looks to make a permanent signing later this week.
Paul Robinson is still the favourite to be the Reds' new number one but interest has also been shown in bringing in former international goal keepers Craig Gordon or Robert Green.
