Today\u2019s Football Transfer News<\/a> looks at the latest news and rumours from around the Championship, including\u00a0James McClean<\/a>, who is wanted by his old manager at Nottingham Forest<\/a>.\u00a0Plus, the Reading striker being linked with a move to Sunderland<\/a>.<\/p>\n

FTN<\/a>, brought to you by Last Word Football, also looks at the striker Middlesbrough are targeting. We also take a look at the Bournemouth<\/a> defender wanted on loan by West Brom<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Latest on James McClean<\/a>, Marc McNulty<\/a>, Lukas Jutkiewicz<\/a> and Tyrone Mings<\/a><\/h1>\n

O\u2019Neill Wants Reunion With Winger<\/h2>\n

New Nottingham Forest manager Martin O\u2019Neill is reportedly keen on a reunion with James McClean. O\u2019Neill gave the winger his debut while at Sunderland and also worked with him when he was the Republic of Ireland boss.<\/p>\n

McClean joined his current club,\u00a0Stoke City<\/a>, in the summer for \u00a35 million. He was a regular under Gary Rowett<\/a>, however, since new manager Nathan Jones has arrived he has been on the bench. The winger could jump at the chance of joining up with O\u2019Neill again. Stoke are keen to trim their squad and if Forest can agree a fee then McClean could be on the move again.<\/p>\n

The Latest Striker to be Linked With Sunderland<\/h2>\n

Sunderland\u2019s search for a new striker continues. A second bid for Wigan\u2019s Will Grigg<\/a> has been rejected. Now, Reading\u2019s out-of-favour forward Marc McNulty<\/a> is being linked. The striker only signed last summer from Coventry for around \u00a31 million. This was after scoring 23 goals as the Sky Blues gained promotion.<\/p>\n

The 26-year-old has struggled since his move, scoring just once. Sunderland<\/a> could be keen on a loan deal, to begin with. If the Black Cats lose out on their believed number one target in Grigg, McNulty could be their next target.<\/p>\n

Boro target Birmingham Striker<\/h2>\n

Middlesbrough are reportedly keen to bring Lukas Jutkiewicz<\/a> back to the Riverside. The striker spent time at Boro earlier in his career before moving to Burnley<\/a>. Jutkiewicz has been one of Birmingham\u2019s stars under Garry Monk, scoring ten\u00a0goals so far this season.<\/p>\n

Monk has advised that none of his players are for sale. However, with Tony Pulis set to make a move for the striker and several clubs looking at Che Adams<\/a>, he could have a battle to keep hold of them.<\/p>\n

Mings to Move to West Brom?<\/h2>\n

Bournemouth defender Tyrone Mings<\/a> is a target for Championship promotion hopefuls West Brom. Versatile defender Mings has struggled for game time this season. West Brom\u00a0are looking at a loan deal. Mings cost the Cherries \u00a38 million when he signed, but could be allowed to leave.<\/p>\n

Baggies boss Darren Moore could lose defenders this month and wants Mings in case of a worst case scenario. The defender, however, could want insurances over first-team football before any deal is agreed.<\/p>\n
