NOTTINGHAM FOREST have had a bid accepted for Wolves defender Stephen Ward, but a deal is unlikely at the moment, due to the two parties being unable to agree personal terms, according to sources in the Midlands.

Ward played under Blues boss Mick McCarthy at Molineux and is thought to have been the subject of a bid from the Ipswich boss too, who is looking to bolster his threadbare squad.

Ward has scored eight goals in 228 games for Wanderers since signing from Bohemians in January 2007.
