Davies seeks Oakley reunion

Nottingham Forest manager Billy Davies is looking to take Leicester City club captain Matt Oakley to the City Ground in a shock move for the former Derby County skipper.

Oakley worked closely with Davies when the Rams were last in the Premier League and now, seeking to support his side's promotion ambitions, wants the Foxes' midfielder to join the Trees.

According to the Daily Mirror Davies hopes to persuade Sven Goran Eriksson to allow Oakley to leave on loan for the remainder of the season, whilst others suspect Oakley may have initiated negotiations with his former manager as he looks to secure a contract for next season.
