Nottingham Forest: Gustavo Scarpa to join in January

Nottingham Forest have signed Brazilian attacking midfielder Gustavo Scarpa on a free transfer.

He will join on a three-and-a-half-year contract starting on 1 January after his Palmeiras deal expires.

The 28-year-old scored 37 goals in 211 appearances for the Brazilian side and helped them to their 11th league title last month.

"I'm very happy to be here - it's a dream for me," said Scarpa, who won one cap for Brazil in 2017.

"It's a new challenge and I can't wait for it to begin. It's always been an ambition since I was a little kid to play in Europe, and my dream is to play in the Premier League.
