Trentside News » Calderwood looks for loans
Back to Home Written on 11-Aug-2008 by BoozehoundNottingham Forest manager Colin Calderwood is looking to bolster his frontline by bringing in a Premier League striker on loan.
The Reds boss is struggling with injuries to his forwards with Paul Anderson, Andrew Cole, Joe Garner and Nathan Tyson all on the sidelines.
He told the Nottingham Evening Post: "We are trying to bring a striker in on loan to give us added firepower in the short term,
"There is no secret in that, we will continue to work on that today. Whether the club concerned will allow their player to play in the Carling Cup is a different matter. That is a situation we will have to look at.
"But it would be unwise to continue as we are, with no prospect of the other boys returning before the international break. By the time they have a week's training and maybe a reserve game we will be looking at the end of the month."
Forest have been linked with former fans favourite and current Aston Villa striker Marlon Harewood. He was in the stands during Forest's opening fixture against Reading last Sunday.
