Paul Anderson has joined Championship newcomers Nottingham Forest on a season-long loan deal after rejecting a return back to Swansea where he was loaned out to last season.

Anderson, 19, is hoping to be able to complete the deal in time for pre-season training this coming Tuesday.

“I enjoyed last season at Swansea but after speaking to Forest I just felt that it was the right move for me.” he told the Forest Offish website.

“I’m joining a big club in Forest and I am very excited about the challenge of trying to help them make an impact in the Championship.

“I realise I will face a battle to get into the team because there are some very good players here but I have confidence in my ability to do that.” he added.
