Notts County are set to launch a last-minute bid for out of favour Manchester City striker Benjani.

The League Two club, led by sporting director Sven-Goran Eriksson, have already clinched the signing of Sol Campbell and now still have their sights set high.

Benjani signed for Eriksson when he was managing City in January 2008 but due to injury and incoming stars, has dropped down the pecking order under Mark Hughes.

A deal involving Benjani and Hull City recently broke down allowing Notts County to swoop and make the Zimbabwean their highest paid player.
