Nottingham Forest are close to signing Ghana international, Andre Ayew until the end of the season as a free agent.

The 33-year-old forward is without a club following his exit from Qatari outfit, Al Sadd despite five months left on his contract.

Andre, who is a World Cup winner with Ghana’s U-20 side has turned down the chance to join Premier League rivals Everton and is undergoing a medical at Forest.

The former Swansea and West Ham player would be Forest’s 29th signing since their return to the Premier League.
