Nottingham Forest have signed Sevilla defender Gonzalo Montiel.

The Argentina World Cup winner arrives on-loan for the season with the option to buy.

"I'm coming here full of expectations, of getting to play and showing what I can do," Montiel told Forest's website.

"I'm also hungry to win things, to win trophies - now's the time to show this.

"I've been watching the Premier League since I was a child. As a player you want to play in the best league, and the Premier League is just that."

Forest's chief football officer Ross Wilson added: "We are pleased to welcome Gonzalo and his family to Nottingham.

"He has already experienced some major achievements in his career and he is looking forward with anticipation to the next chapter with Nottingham Forest."
