DONE DEAL: Nottingham Forest sign Bordeaux striker Hwang Ui-jo

Nottingham Forest have completed the signing of Bordeaux striker Hwang Ui-jo.

South Korea international Hwang will not move to the City Ground, however.

Hwang will instead join Olympiakos on-loan for the season.

Forest and Olympiakos are both owned by the Marinakis family.

The 29-year-old has 47 caps for his country and signed for Bordeaux from Gamba Osaka in 2019.

Since his arrival in France, Ui-jo has scored 29 goals including 11 in last season's Ligue 1 campaign.
