Ghanaian young defender Jordi Osei-Tutu has revealed why he opted to join Nottingham Forest despite being chased by other top clubs.
The versatile right back joins The Reds until the end of the 2021/22 season.
Osei-Tutu, 22, has already had a taste of the Championship having spent time last season on loan with Cardiff City. He also made 21 appearances on loan to German second division side VfL Bochum in the 2019-20 season, where he scored five goals and also operated as a winger.
The player also expressed excitement after signing the deal, saying: “I’m delighted to sign for such a historic club and I can’t wait to see the fans for the first time.
“Everything about the club attracted me and the manager, Chris Hughton, is great and I’m excited to get started.
“It’s really important for me to get my head down now and it’s good to know that I’m here for a full season and I want to show everyone what I can do.
“I know what to expect in the division, it’s a very tough and physical league but I’m ready for the challenge ahead.”
Jordi signed as a young professional at Arsenal in 2015 having previously been a scholar at Reading.
