It is understood that the 24-year-old is keen to secure a move away from the City Ground after a period of time on the sidelines.
According to Sky Sports News, Coventry boss Andy Thorn has identified the powerful forward as the player to improve his attacking options.
McGoldrick failed to score a single goal for Forest last season.
