Nottingham Forest have signed Newcastle United striker Chris Wood on loan until the end of the season.

The deal includes an option to make the transfer permanent until 2024.

The New Zealand international, 31, moves after a year at Newcastle, who he joined from Burnley for 25m.

"Nottingham Forest is a massive club which I have come up against a number of times, but it's nice now to be able to pull on the red shirt and fight for the club," he said.

"It's a great feeling and I am very thankful to be here.

"You can see the transition over the past 18 months and it's progressing in the right way."
