LEWIS O’BRIEN is waiting to speak to one of THREE MLS clubs in America.
New York City, Columbus Crew and Atlanta United all want the Nottingham Forest outcast.
The midfielder, 24, could end up in New York if they sort out a loan fee.
SunSport recently reported that O’Brien is hoping to quit Forest and join a club in the US.
The former Huddersfield star has been left out of Nottingham's Prem squad after seeing a January loan move to Blackburn Rovers ruled out by the EFL despite an appeal.

Rovers were ruled to have failed to submit the relevant paperwork before the UK's 11pm transfer deadline.
The EFL subsequently rejected their mitigating factors as to why the paperwork was handed in late.
Steve Cooper’s side could heavily fund a temporary switch for O’Brien with the American market still open.
But that includes hurdles as many clubs have their allocation of foreign players.
The versatile midfielder only joined Forest from Huddersfield last summer.

O'Brien started his new side's first five Prem matches this season, before gradually finding action harder to come by.
His only start since came during the 4-0 defeat to Leicester on October 3, when he was hooked at half-time.
O'Brien has registered a total of one goal in 17 appearances across all competitions with Forest.
