Serge Aurier is 'close to finalising his move to Nottingham Forest', according to a report.
Forest recently confirmed a loan deal for Atletico Madrid full-back Renan Lodi, taking their total number of acquisitions to 18, and still the Midlands club are keen for more signings to increase competition for places.
Former Tottenham right-back Aurier, 29, would become the 19th summer signing for Forest since their promotion to the Premier League.
Sky Sports has reported that Aurier's move to Nottingham Forest is edging closer, with a two-year contract in place for the free agent, following the expiry of his contract at Villareal.
