Watford goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon hopes to stay with Nottingham Forest.

A deadline day move saw Pantilimon depart Watford for Forest in January and he has gone on to become an integral part of Aitor Karanka's side.

"I like the spirit of the club, I like the history and I like the team," he told the Forest programme. “I have very good teammates and the staff are good as well.

“I hope that I will be here next season and that I can help the team as much as possible for the aims that we have.

“I really like what is happening here."
