Nottingham Forest have signed Everton goalkeeper Iain Turner on-loan to the end of the season.

Forest boss Billy Davies said: "It's no secret that we have been looking to bring a new goalkeeper in to provide competition.

"Iain Turner fits the bill perfectly. He is a goalkeeper with a good pedigree and great potential and it's a situation that helps both ourselves and Everton."

Turner also told Forest's website: "I'm looking forward to it immensely - it's a great opportunity for me and I intend to grasp it with both hands.

"Forest's league position doesn't concern me. I've played in the Championship before, know how tight a league it is and how quickly things can turn around."
