West Ham midfielder James Ward-Prowse has joined Nottingham Forest on loan.

The England international joined the hammers from Southampton for £30million last summer and went on to make 52 appearances, scoring seven goals.

However, he has played just 16 minutes under new head coach Julen Lopetegui having come on as a substitute in the opening weekend defeat by Aston Villa.

West Ham have already strengthened their midfield this summer with the signing of Guido Rodriguez from Real Betis.
