Jonjo Shelvey will have a medical at Nottingham Forest on Monday ahead of joining the club on a two-and-a-half-year deal.
Forest have moved for the former Liverpool player after finding themselves light in midfield due to the absence of Ryan Yates and Cheikhou Kouyate.
Boss Steve Cooper wanted to add Premier League experience to his side as they battle relegation and is confident Shelvey, 30, fits the bill.
