English Championship club Nottingham Forest have announced the signing of England youth international Chuba Akpom on loan from Arsenal until the end of this season.

The 19 - year - old recently penned a long - term deal with The Gunners, but he has found first team opportunities difficult to come by for the last one month.

Akpom will spend the next two months on loan at Nottingham Forest, chairman of the club Fawaz Alhasawi announced in a brief statement posted on his official Twitter account.
