Wales international Brennan Johnson turns down a big-money move away to sign an extended four-year deal with Premier League new boys Nottingham Forest, despite interest from the likes of Newcastle and Tottenham

Wales international Brennan Johnson has signed a new four-year contract with Premier League newcomers Nottingham Forest.

Johnson, 21, scored 19 goals for Forest last season to help them earn promotion via the play-offs and reach the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, and then went on to help Wales reach their first World Cup finals in 64 years before bagging his first international goal against Belgium last month.

All that came in his first full season in the Forest squad after the academy graduate spent the previous campaign on loan at Lincoln.
