The Reds are on the verge of making three new signings

Interest in Frenchman Guy Moussi has been confirmed by the club while Colin Calderwood has also signalled deals for two strikers.

Carlisle's highly-rated youngster Joe Garner will arrive in a £500,000 deal, to be followed by veteran star Andy Cole.

"Andy still has a burning desire to be successful," Calderwood told the Nottingham Evening Post.

Garner netted 14 times for Carlisle last season.
