Sheffield Wednesday are offering Francis Jeffers to Sven Goran Eriksson's Notts County.
The Daily Express says Owls boss Brian Laws has urged Eriksson to sign Hillsborough outcast Jeffers.
former England, Arsenal and Everton striker Jeffers has been frozen out by Laws after serving a three-match ban for head-butting at Port Vale last month. He was fined two weeks' wages and transfer-listed.
Laws hopes Notts County director of football Eriksson will take Jeffers - whom he gave his solitary England cap against Australia in 2003 - on loan.
