Outcast Gustavo Scarpa is close to completing his move to Olympiacos from Nottingham Forest.

The attacking midfielder has played only 10 games for the Reds since arriving in January.

Now he is preparing to leave the City Ground, with Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis facilitating his departure.

Scarpa is not happy in England and is experiencing personal issues, which had resulted in poor form.

He is now signing for Olympiacos for the season on loan, another team that Marinakis owns.

Forest boss Steve Cooper is happy with the decision, as he does not plan to use Scarpa this season.
