Nottingham Forest have completed the signing of three-time UEFA Champions League winning goalkeeper Keylor Navas on loan from PSG.

Navas, 36, joins Steve Cooper’s side for the rest of the 2022/23 campaign in a boost to Forest’s battle for Premier League survival.

The Costa Rica international brings a wealth of experience to the City Ground, having made 564 appearances throughout his career.

Navas has three Champions League titles to his name, alongside four Club World Cup triumphs and many more pieces of silverware.

The former Real Madrid stopper becomes the Reds’ sixth signing of the January transfer window, after the deadline-day arrivals of Felipe and Jonjo Shelvey.

Forest will now have cover in the goalkeeper position for the rest of the campaign, as Dean Henderson remains out injured with a thigh injury.

Providing all of the relevant paperwork is finalised, Navas could make his debut on Sunday against Leeds United.

He had fallen out of favour in Paris, with Gianluigi Donnarumma preferred as number one.

Navas only managed two appearances for PSG this term, with both appearances coming in the Coupe de France.

The experienced keeper started all three games for his national side at the World Cup, as they exited at the group stage.

Steve Cooper’s side are 13th in the Premier League table, four points clear of the drop zone.

Forest are priced at around 5/2 to be relegated on Premier League betting sites.
