AceShowbiz - George Clooney wishes nothing but his bestfriend Brad Pitt happiness. And it seems like to him, MIT professor Neri Oxman, who is rumored to be dating Brad, may bring happiness to the "Allied" actor following his infamous split from Angelina Jolie.

"George would be thrilled to see Brad get serious with Neri," a source says to HollywoodLife.com. "This new connection is clearly good for Brad, he's got a spring in his step again."

It is also said that another reason why George is trying to push Brad for Neri is that his wife Amal Clooney will get a like-minded friend in the process. "He knows it would score points with Amal. He's always trying to impress her, he still has her on this huge pedestal," shares the source. "He loves the idea of them all going out on double dates, he's sure that it would please his wife to be spending time with other super well educated woman."
